Question

My dad's been diagnosed with diabetes and now it turns out three of his heart valves are blocked. When I talked to the doctors, they mentioned the situation is beyond what bypass surgery can fix. I'm really worried and unsure about what to do next. Could you give me some guidance on this?

Is peanut butter good for high blood pressure?

Question

I'm currently on medication for high blood pressure and I'm wondering if it's safe for me to take Viagra 50 mg. I'm really looking for advice from an allopathy doctor on this. Can you help me figure this out?

Question

I'm really worried about my dad's health. He's been dealing with high blood pressure for a while and has been on medication. Lately, his blood pressure has been spiking a lot, so we got an ECG and echo done, which showed mild concentration LVH. He's been taking the meds shown in the report, and he's also been having trouble sleeping, so there are meds for that too. Even with all this, he still has some sleeping issues. Do you think he might need surgery, or can this situation be stabilized with just meds? What would you suggest as the next step?
