I'm really worried because my blood pressure is reading 140100. I know that's considered high, and I'm wondering what medicine I should be taking for it. Is this something I need to be urgently concerned about? Should I see a doctor right away?

Can a treadmill test, 2D echo, or ECG detect an 80% heart blockage, or is an angiogram the only way to find this out? I'm really curious because I want to understand what these tests can actually show.

0% heart blockage cannot be directly traced by a treadmill test, 2D echo, or ECG. These tests can provide important information about the heart's function and structure, but they may not definitively show the extent of blockages in the coronary arteries. The gold standard for diagnosing blockages in the arteries is a coronary angiogram (angio). It is an invasive procedure where a dye is injected into the arteries to visualize any blockages. If you suspect significant blockages in your coronary arteries, it is best to consult with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management.

I'm 21 years old and feeling pretty weak. My weight's only 47 kg, and I'm experiencing chest pain whenever I do any heavy work. I also have heart palpitations, feel weak, and yawn a lot. I've attached my x-ray reportcould you take a look and let me know what's going on?

Based on your symptoms of chest pain, heart palpitations, weakness, and excessive yawning, along with your low weight, it is important to rule out any underlying cardiac issues or anemia. Since you have provided an x-ray report, it would be best to consult with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management. For chest pain and heart palpitations, you can take **Metoprolol** 25mg twice daily to help with the symptoms. Additionally, if anemia is confirmed, you can take **Ferrous Sulfate** 325mg once daily to improve your iron levels and alleviate weakness. Please follow up with a cardiologist for a comprehensive assessment and appropriate management.
