Question 1

I'm experiencing some pain near my chest, specifically above my heart, and sometimes it even shifts to the right side of that area. It's been going on for about two months now. I'm not really sure if this could be related to a heart issue, a nerve problem, or maybe something like gas. Any thoughts on what might be causing this?

Question 2

I'm a bit concerned about my dad, who's 72. His blood pressure is 100 over 60, and while he seems healthy and manages to walk around 3 to 4 kilometers each day, I'm wondering if there's anything I should be worried about or keep an eye on. Could you let me know if this needs any special attention?

Accepted Answer

Since your father is otherwise healthy and active, there may not be an immediate cause for concern. However, it is important to monitor his blood pressure regularly. To help raise his blood pressure, increasing his salt and fluid intake can be beneficial. Encouraging him to drink more water and consume salty foods in moderation can help elevate his blood pressure. In some cases, compression stockings can also be helpful. If his low blood pressure persists or if he experiences symptoms such as dizziness, lightheadedness, or fainting, it would be advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

Question 3

I'm really worried about my blood pressure. Are there any known cases of curing essential hypertension? It seems like my sympathetic nervous system is always in overdrive, causing my body to jump into fight or flight mode for no reason. There's no sign of any tumors on my pituitary or adrenal glands, and all my blood tests and ECGs have come back normal. Is it possible to permanently fix this by getting my sympathetic nervous system back to normal?

Accepted Answer

While essential hypertension may not be "cured" in the traditional sense, it can be effectively managed through a combination of lifestyle changes, stress management, and medication. Working with a healthcare professional to optimize treatment, including controlling SNS overactivity, is important to help manage your blood pressure and prevent complications.

I recently got my Lipoprotein a test results back, and it shows Lpa 47.2. I'm wondering if this is considered a normal range or if I should be thinking about medication. Can you help me understand what this means for my health?
