Question 2

I'm a bit worried about my blood pressure levels. Do you think it's at a point where I should see a doctor, or are there steps I can take on my own to bring it down? I've also been having some issues with drinking. Would that be affecting my BP too?

Question 3

I'm really concerned about my husband. He's 34 and doesn't smoke or drink, and he seems physically fit. But his TMT report came back positive, and the Echo showed mild LVF. We did a CT angiography, and it was normal, with no blockages found. Should we be worried about these results? Any advice would be helpful.

Accepted Answer

"Hi, based on the information provided, it seems like your husband is in good overall health despite the positive TMT report and mild LVF on Echo. Since the CT angiography showed no blockage, that is a good sign. To manage the mild LVF, your husband can take ACE inhibitors like Enalapril 5mg once daily to help improve heart function. It's also important for him to maintain a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise and a balanced diet. Regular follow-up with a cardiologist is recommended to monitor his heart health. I hope this helps."

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?

According to me you have to measure your bp once daily and make a report after that we can make a conclusion and if it is prehypertension range we can try some lifestyle changles avoid salt tea coffee stress etc
