I'm really worried because my dad's having some mild chest pain. The doctor suggested an X-ray and then mentioned a CT-guided FNAC, but we're stuck since there aren't any clinics nearby that offer this procedure. On top of that, we're not in a strong financial position. Can you guide me on what we should do next? I'm feeling pretty lost right now.

View allCan someone actually survive a blood pressure reading of 250 over 150 for a couple of hours? And what's the highest blood pressure our blood vessels can handle before it becomes too dangerous?
A blood pressure of 250150 is extremely high and can be life-threatening. Sustained high blood pressure can lead to serious complications such as stroke, heart attack, or kidney failure. It is important to seek immediate medical attention if you or someone else is experiencing such high blood pressure. The maximum blood pressure that blood vessels can typically withstand is around 220120. Beyond this range, the blood vessels are at risk of damage and the organs may not receive adequate blood supply. It is crucial to keep blood pressure within normal limits to maintain good health and prevent complications.
