I've been having some weird symptoms lately. A few days ago, I woke up with this chest pain and it kinda hurt when I breathed. My inhaler helped a bit, but then yesterday, my blood pressure reading at the dentist was 15074, which is way higher than my usual 120-127 for the systolic part. I'm trying to figure out if I should just make an appointment with my GP or if it's serious enough to hit up urgent care or the ER. What do you think?

View allI've been dealing with high blood pressure for the past five months, and it's really starting to worry me. I get dizzy, have blurred vision, headaches, and neck pain too. The weird thing is, sometimes my blood pressure shoots up after I eat. I'm a 26-year-old female, weighing 90 kg with a height of 5'9". My thyroid tests are normal, but I've been on losakindh 25 mg for about three months, and it doesn't seem to be helping anymore. Do you have any advice on what might be going on or what I could try next?
It seems like your blood pressure is not well controlled with Losakind-H 25 mg anymore. I recommend adding a calcium channel blocker like Amlodipine 5 mg once daily to help lower your blood pressure. Additionally, you can consider adding a diuretic like Hydrochlorothiazide 12.5 mg once daily to further control your blood pressure. However, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider before making any changes to your medication regimen.

All three arteries are blocked at 90, 80, and 80. We're trying to avoid bypass surgery would stenting work in this case? If successful, how long can we expect the stents to last before needing another procedure?
For triple-vessel disease with high blockage, bypass is more durable than stents. Stents may offer short-term relief but restenosis is a risk. A cardiac surgeon should evaluate case specifics.

I'm trying to figure out how long the results of a treadmill test are good for. I had mine done about 28 days ago, and it was negative. I'm also curious about how long an ECG test stays valid. Can you help me out with this?
A treadmill test (TMT) result is typically considered valid for about 6 months to 1 year, depending on the individual's health condition and any changes in symptoms. Since your TMT was negative 28 days ago, it should still be considered valid. As for an ECG test, it is generally valid for a shorter period, usually around 1-2 weeks. If you have any concerns or new symptoms, it is advisable to consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation.
