I've been checking my blood pressure over the past few days and my average reading is around 14090. When I checked it a second time, it was showing 13089. Is this something I should be concerned about? Can you give me some advice?

I'm feeling really lightheaded and having some chest discomfort. A couple of years ago, I did some tests like ECG, ECHO, and TMT, and everything was normal except there was a comment about systolic dysfunction in the echo. My blood pressure was also fine at that time. But now, when I checked my blood pressure because of the lightheadedness, it was 10661. What could be causing these symptoms, and should I be worried about the systolic dysfunction part from before?
Feeling lightheaded and experiencing chest discomfort, especially with a history of systolic dysfunction noted in your echocardiogram, warrants immediate attention. Although your previous tests were normal, new or worsening symptoms should not be ignored. Your current blood pressure of 10661 mmHg is on the lower side, which may contribute to your lightheadedness. Given your symptoms and history, it is essential to seek medical evaluation promptly to rule out any potential cardiac issues or other causes. Please visit an emergency room or contact your healthcare provider as soon as possible for a thorough assessment and appropriate management.

I'm really worried about my mom's 2D Echo report that mentions Aortic Valve Sclerosis. It also states LV Diastolic Dysfunction, Mild TR, Mild PAH, and Trivial MR AR, but no Intracardiac Masses or pericardial effusion. What caught my eye was the doctor's advice for an angiogram. Is that truly necessary? What kinds of risks are we looking at if we don't go for it? Would appreciate your guidance on whether this is a standard procedure or if alternative approaches exist.
yes angiogram is advised .
