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?

View allI'm really worried because my HDL is 38, and I've heard that kind of level can lead to heart disease. I'm feeling pretty scared about it and could really use some guidance. What can I do to improve it?
To improve your HDL level, you can make lifestyle changes such as: - Engaging in regular physical activity - Eating a healthy diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and healthy fats - Quitting smoking if you smoke - Limiting alcohol intake In addition to lifestyle changes, your doctor may also prescribe medications to help increase your HDL level. One such medication is Niacin (Vitamin B3), which can help raise HDL levels. The typical dosage for Niacin is 500-2000 mg per day, but it is important to follow your doctor's instructions regarding the dosage. Remember to consult your healthcare provider before starting any new medication or making significant lifestyle changes.

I recently got my ECG done just as a routine check-up, and it came back with a note saying 'suspect anteroseptal myocardial infarction.' What exactly does this mean, and should I be worried about it?
suspect anteroseptal myocardial infarction on your ECG means there may be a heart attack in the front part of the heart. You may need to take medications like Aspirin 75mg once daily, Clopidogrel 75mg once daily, and Atorvastatin 40mg once daily to prevent further complications. It is important to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management."

I'm a bit concerned about my heart health. In March, my cardiologist recommended a 2D echo and TMT test. I've started taking Prolomet R50 and Deplatt A 75 as prescribed. I'm just wondering, does it seem like we're on the right track with the treatment plan?
See a specialist for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.
