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?

View allI'm really puzzled about my friend's sudden passing. He was perfectly fine until about 10:30 in the morning, but out of nowhere, he had a severe cardiac arrest and died by 10:50. In the 48 days leading up to his death, he rarely ate food from home. I can't help but wonder if there might be anything like a slow poison that could have affected him. Could you shed some light on what might have happened?
While I understand your concern about potential poisoning given the changes in his eating habits, sudden cardiac arrest can happen without warning even in people who appear healthy. The period of irregular eating could be related to various factors like stress, depression, or underlying health issues. If you have serious concerns about the circumstances, I would encourage you to share them with the relevant authorities and discuss with his family about requesting an autopsy if one hasn't been performed. Most importantly, please make sure you're getting support during this difficult time - losing someone suddenly is incredibly challenging, and it's natural to have questions and seek answers about what happened.

I'm a 46-year-old guy who's a bit on the heavier side. I've always been healthy, but lately, they've told me I've got hypertension. I'm not a fan of allopathic medicine because I'm worried about the long-term side effects. Do you have any natural treatment options for dealing with hypertension?

I'm a bit worried because my ECG showed a small variation, and now my doctor wants me to have an ECHO done. The thing is, I'm in a remote area, and getting to the city for the ECHO will take some effort. Do you think it's okay if I wait and get the ECHO done in about 10 days, or should I try to do it sooner?
If your doctor has recommended an ECHO after observing a small variation in your ECG, it is important to follow up with the ECHO test as advised. However, if you are in a remote location and unable to travel to the city for the ECHO immediately, it should be okay to schedule the ECHO after 10 days. Make sure to keep in touch with your doctor regarding any changes in your symptoms during this period.
