I've been taking cilametxl 50mg, moxvas 0.3mg, and minipress XL 5mg every morning and night, but I've noticed that my blood pressure drops temporarily and then spikes to around 17598 or 18595 by 4 p.m. and is high again early in the morning around 6 a.m. Why does this happen, and what can I do to manage these fluctuations better?

I'm looking at the results from a recent heart evaluation, and I'm a bit concerned. It mentions "Concentric LVH, Mild MR, Trivial TR, normal pasp, No pericardial effusion, LVEF 60, No RWMA, Normal LV function," and my blood pressure reading was 210110. Could you help me understand what all this means for my heart health? I'm especially worried about the high blood pressure and terms like "Concentric LVH" and "LVEF 60." What should I be doing or asking my doctor about these findings?

The findings suggest concentric left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) with mild mitral regurgitation (MR) and trivial tricuspid regurgitation (TR). There is no pericardial effusion, and the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is normal at 60%. There are no regional wall motion abnormalities (RWMA) indicating normal left ventricular function. The blood pressure is elevated at 210110 mmHg. You may consider starting antihypertensive medication to help lower your blood pressure and reduce the risk of complications. A combination of medications such as Amlodipine 5mg and Lisinopril 10mg can be prescribed to help manage your blood pressure effectively. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider regularly to monitor your condition and adjust your treatment as needed.

Is it gas or heart attack?

Heart attack feels like pressure on chest cannot be relieved by antacids,associated with breathlessness. One can not entirely differentiate chest pain due to gas from chest pain due to heart attack based on symptoms only. You may need to visit a hospital and get evaluated by a health-care provider.
