I'm wondering if having a blood pressure reading of 12060 is considered normal or if it might be something I should be concerned about. I've been leading a pretty healthy lifestyle, but should I think about seeing a doctor?

Your blood pressure reading of 12060 is considered normal and falls within the healthy range. Since you have a healthy lifestyle, there is no immediate cause for concern. However, it's always a good idea to monitor your blood pressure regularly. If you experience any symptoms such as dizziness, headaches, or chest pain, it would be advisable to consult a healthcare professional.

I'm really worried about my mom. Her blood pressure has been consistently over 14090 for the past year. She's actually quite healthy otherwise, and makes sure to walk for at least 30 minutes every morning. She's even cut back on her sodium intake. Do you think she still needs to start taking medication to help control her blood pressure?

Given that your mother's blood pressure has been consistently above 14090 mmHg for a year, it is important to manage it to reduce the risk of complications such as heart disease or stroke. While lifestyle changes like reducing sodium intake and regular exercise are excellent steps, they might not be sufficient on their own. It would be best for her to consult with her healthcare provider to determine if she needs medication to help control her blood pressure.

I'm a bit confused because I recently got a stress test done, and the results said it's negative for inducible ischemia during the TMT test. What does this really mean? Should I be worried or is this a good sign?

I'm really worried about my mom who's 89 and dealing with a leaky heart valve. Every couple of months, she gets shortness of breath and ends up in the hospital. Theyve given her a diuretic for the foot swelling and fluid in her lungs, but I'm really anxious to know what her life expectancy might be like with this condition at her age. Can you shed some light on this?
