Question 2

I've been keeping an eye on my health and just found out that my blood pressure is at 14090. My ECG report shows that my right bundle branch is blocked, and now my doctor wants me to start taking CYTOGARD and MONIT GTN 2.6. To be honest, I'm a bit nervous about starting these medications since I don't really have any symptoms. Is it really necessary to take them, or should I hold off until there's something more serious going on?

Question 3

I'm a bit confused about the TMT and Echo results for my dad, who's 50. The Echo came back normal with an EF of 60, and the TMT showed good effort tolerance. But there were upsloping ST changes at the peak of the test. The report says it's negative for exercise-induced reversible ischemia. Is it normal to have these upsloping ST changes? Should I be worried about this?

Accepted Answer

The upsloping ST changes at the peak of the TMT test can be considered normal if the test is negative for exercise-induced reversible ischemia. It is important to correlate these findings with your father's overall clinical history and risk factors for heart disease. In this case, no further intervention may be needed based on the test results provided.

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?
