Question

My mom has been dealing with high blood pressure for about 15 years and has been on Sartel since she had a minor attack back then. But recently, like in the last two weeks, her blood pressure has dropped from high to low. What could be causing this change, and what should we do about it?

Question

I'm really concerned about my pulse rate, as it's been hovering between 95 and 105 for the past four years. I'm feeling a mild discomfort in my heart again, similar to what I experienced last year. When I visited Ibrahim Cardiac in Bangladesh, everything seemed normalno blockages or anything serious. After some rest and medication, I felt a bit better, but my pulse didn't change. Now that I'm in Oman, I can't easily consult the same doctor. I'm 33 years old, not overweight at 74 kg, and 5.5 in height. Do you think I should be worried about this pulse rate or the mild heart pain coming back? What should I do next?

Question

I'm really worried about heart health. Could you tell me what tests are usually done to find heart disease? And what are the early signs of a heart attack I should watch out for? Also, what can I do to prevent a heart attack from happening in the first place?
