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?

I'm really concerned about my mom's health after her recent checkup. She's got this LDL cholesterol level of 232, and the echocardiogram showed something called Trivial TR Grade 1 diastolic dysfunction. They also mentioned LVEF at 62 and that the TMT was positive for inducible ischemia. She's 49, doesn't have blood pressure or sugar issues, but the doctor suggested an angiogram to look further into it. I'm wondering if it's really necessary?

yes angiogram is advised to the patient..

I'm worried because I've been having chest pain for the past couple of days. It's not constant but comes and goes, and there's this burning sensation with it. Plus, my whole body just hurts. What could this mean?

Overall the possibility of a heart problem seems to be less but without doing any objective test, a heart problem can not be conclusively ruled out especially because now a days heart diseases have become common in young people. So please meet a cardiologist as early as possible and get yourself properly
