I'm 34 years old and during my routine check-up, the TMT report came back positive. But according to the echo, there's no blockage. My blood pressure before the TMT was 10060. The report also mentioned hypochromic anemia. Can you help me understand what all this means and what I should do next?

"Based on your TMT report showing a positive result and the presence of hypochromic anemia, it is important to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, you can start taking a daily low dose of aspirin to help prevent blood clots. Additionally, your doctor may prescribe medications such as atorvastatin to help lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart disease. It is also important to address the hypochromic anemia by taking iron supplements such as Ferrous Sulfate 325 mg daily to help increase your red blood cell count. Make sure to follow up with your healthcare provider for a comprehensive treatment plan."

View allI'm really worried because her blood pressure is staying high despite taking several medications. We've done all the tests, and everything seems fine except her LDL is a little high. What could be causing this, and what else can we do to help get her blood pressure under control?
High blood pressure that is not well controlled despite taking multiple medications can be challenging. In this case, adding a medication such as Amlodipine (5mg) can help lower blood pressure effectively. Additionally, for high LDL cholesterol, Atorvastatin (20mg) can be prescribed to help lower LDL levels and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. It is important to follow up with regular blood pressure and cholesterol monitoring to adjust the treatment as needed.

I've been taking Concor Cor 2.5mg for my blood pressure, but it makes my pulse drop below 60. I've started taking half a tablet because of that. Is it okay to switch to Concor Cor 1.25mg instead of splitting the 2.5mg pill?

My mom's having some trouble with hypertension. Her systolic measurement sometimes hits 123, and the diastolic is around 95 and even reaches 98 occasionally. I'm really concerned about why her blood pressure isn't considered normal or stable, especially when it sometimes goes up to 140 over 102. What could be causing these fluctuations?
Your mother might be showing early signs of developing systemic hypertension. Regular monitoring of her blood pressure will confirm the diagnosis, and she can be consequently started on a anti-hypertensive regimen of medication. Lifestyle modifications with dietary changes may be necessary for maintaining a healthy blood pressure. It is best to consult a physician who will monitor her progress over a long period of time.
