My mom has high blood pressure, and her recent reading was 14090. She's been taking AMTAS daily to manage it, but I'm worried if that reading is still too high. Should we be adjusting her medication or doing something different to get it under control?

Question

I'm a bit concerned about my heart rate when I'm sleeping. At night, it sometimes goes as high as 115 beats per minute, but during the day, it's more like 85 BPM. I don't have any other health conditions right now. Should I be worried about this change in heart rate between day and night? Is it normal?

I'm really concerned about my sister's ultrasound report. It shows she has dilated cardiomyopathy and severe left ventricular systolic dysfunction with an EF of 33. She's also got severe pulmonary artery hypertension and an RVSP of 78 mmHg. The doctor mentioned there's no surgery option. Can you shed some light on what treatment options might be available for her situation?
