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 trying to understand how likely it is to have a heart blockage if my ECG comes back normal? Also, under what circumstances would a doctor suggest going for an angiography?

When ECG is normal no need to worry,if you have non specific chest pain,get a 2D echo done and visit Cardiologist for appropriate management

My dad's experiencing some angina pain, and we went to see a doctor at Sgpgi. They recommended an angiography, and it turns out there's an 80% blockage in each of his arteries. What does this mean for his health, and what should we consider doing next?

The recommended medication for managing angina pain due to blockage in the arteries is Nitroglycerin. It helps to relax and widen blood vessels, improving blood flow to the heart. Additionally, your father may also be prescribed antiplatelet medications like Aspirin to prevent blood clots, and statins like Atorvastatin to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of further blockages.
