What does it mean if my ECG report says I have lateral wall ischemia? Should I be worried about how severe this is? I'd really like to understand what this implies for my heart health.

My dad's 65 and he's been dealing with high blood pressure for the past year, taking Telma 40. I just checked his blood pressure today, and it's 140 over 90. Is that normal? I'm really concerned and could use some advice.

Yes it is normal and continue the same medicine

Hey, a couple of years ago I had a CT coronary angio, but I had a panic attack because of the contrast media, and my heart rate shot up to 120. The staff didn't wait for it to settle and went ahead with the scan. They said my arteries were disease-free and mentioned something about a right circulation and a small caliber artery. How did they even get accurate images with my heart rate that high? Did they just fool me? Also, they originally told me I'd need another CT angio in 10 years. Do you think I need to do a repeat scan now? I'm just really confused about what I should do next.

It is possible to obtain accurate images during a CT coronary angiography even if your heart rate increases due to a panic attack triggered by the contrast media. The imaging technology is designed to capture clear images even with some movement. However, if you have concerns about the accuracy of the results or if you are due for a repeat CT angio according to your previous medical plan, it would be advisable to consult with your healthcare provider. They can review your previous scan, assess your current health status, and determine if a repeat CT angio is necessary at this time.
