I'm dealing with a bit of a BP issue and I'm already on Telmikind H 80. My readings are showing around 14298. Is there anything else I should consider medication-wise or any adjustments you'd recommend? Would love some guidance on this.

View allI'm really worried about my heart health. I've been told I have mild plaque in my LAD and right artery and was diagnosed with insignificant CAD. How much plaque build-up actually needs medication? I'm trying to understand when it becomes a serious issue. Can you help clarify this for me?
In cases of insignificant coronary artery disease (CAD) with mild plaque in the LAD and right artery, medication may still be recommended to manage risk factors and prevent progression of the disease. Common medications that may be prescribed include: 1. Statins (e.g. Atorvastatin) - to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of plaque buildup. Dosage: Typically starting dose of Atorvastatin is 10-20 mg once daily. 2. Antiplatelet agents (e.g. Aspirin) - to prevent blood clots and reduce the risk of heart attack or stroke. Dosage: Aspirin is often prescribed at a low dose of 75-100 mg once daily. 3. Beta-blockers (e.g. Metoprolol) - to lower blood pressure and reduce the workload on the heart. Dosage: Metoprolol is commonly started at a dose of 25-50 mg once or twice daily. It is important to follow your healthcare provider's recommendations and attend regular follow-up appointments for monitoring and adjustment of medications as needed.

My sister's been dealing with some pain on her left side, like under her armpit and shoulder, for a month. She had an ECG done back then, and it seemed normal. But now, she just got another ECG and it said "borderline abnormal." Should we think about doing another one or maybe see a cardiologist? What do you suggest?
ecg and cardiac markers and a cardiologist opinion.
