I was recently diagnosed with mild AR 3rd valve and I'm a bit worried how serious is this condition? Is surgery the only option or can it be managed with medications? Also, I have allergic bronchitis that flares up during allergy season wheezing and trouble breathing from pollen, dust, and pollution. Can this be completely cured or is it something I'll have to manage long-term?
Mild aortic regurgitation (AR) with a 3rd valve can often be managed with monitoring and medication, and surgery is not always the first or only option. Allergic bronchitis is generally managed long-term, with treatments aimed at controlling symptoms and minimizing exposure to allergens

My dad's been dealing with high blood pressure, around 155 over 105, and his creatinine levels were a bit high too, at 1.8. He used to be on 5mg Minipress and 10mg Calcigard, but then he got prescribed 20mg Calcigard by mistake. Now, his blood pressure hasn't changed, but his creatinine shot up to 2.6. Could this be because of the change in the Calcigard dosage?
yes could be probable cause..
