I'm a bit concerned about my blood pressure. I've been dealing with BP issues for the last 10 years and for the past 10 days, its been all over the place. Ive been on Amlosafe MT 50 for the last decade, and my doctor just added Telvas 3D to the mix three days ago. Seems like my BP has stabilized at 18080 since then, which is better than when it was fluctuating between 18097 and 16090. How long do you think itll take for my BP to get back to normal?

It is difficult to predict exactly how many days it will take for your blood pressure to become normal after starting Telvas 3D. However, typically you should see some improvement in your blood pressure within 1-2 weeks of starting the new medication. It is important to continue taking both Amlosafe MT 50 and Telvas 3D as prescribed by your doctor for the best results. If you do not see significant improvement in your blood pressure after a few weeks, please consult your doctor for further evaluation and possible adjustment of your medication dosage.

I've been keeping an eye on my blood pressure, and it was reading 14496 when I saw a doctor. He told me to take Telma 20 for six weeks, which I did, but now I can't get back to see him. This morning, my BP was 13496. What should I do next? Do I need to keep taking the medication or make any changes?
Since you have been taking Telma 20 (Telmisartan 20mg), continue to take it as prescribed by your physician. In addition, you can also focus on lifestyle modifications such as reducing salt intake, maintaining a healthy weight, exercising regularly, and managing stress. If you experience any side effects or have concerns, it's important to follow up with your physician for further guidance.

I'm really worried about my dad. He's 73 and had angioplasty done at Ruby Hospital in Pune about a year ago, where they put in two stents. Now, we're back to the drawing board with blockages in two of his arteries again, and the doctor is suggesting another angioplasty. I'm really concerned and confused about whether this is the best option for him right now. Could you give me some clarity or advice on what steps we should consider?
The right diagnosis for your father would be Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) with restenosis of the stents. The recommended treatment in this case would be to undergo another angioplasty procedure to address the blockages in the two arteries. The doctor may also consider using medications such as dual antiplatelet therapy (e.g. Clopidogrel) and statins (e.g. Atorvastatin) to help prevent further blockages and manage his condition.
