I'm a bit concerned after my recent health check-up. My ECG showed moderate ST depression, but my 2D Echo came out normal. My blood pressure was also 14590. The doctor said it might be due to anxiety and stress. Could this really be the cause, or should I be worried about something else? Any advice would be appreciated.

View allI'm really concerned about my wife's health. Last night, her resting heart rate on the wrist was showing 5257 while she was sleeping. This morning, I checked her blood pressure with our digital home monitor and it was 95 over 86, with a heart rate of 65. Are these numbers too low, and could something be wrong? Also, how reliable is a home BP monitor for checking these things?
A resting heart rate of 52-57 beats per minute is considered normal for some individuals, especially athletes or those who are physically fit. A blood pressure reading of 9586 mmHg is slightly lower than the normal range, but if your wife is not experiencing any symptoms such as dizziness, lightheadedness, or fainting, it may not be a cause for concern. The heart rate of 65 beats per minute is also within the normal range. Home blood pressure monitors can be reliable if used correctly. Make sure to follow the instructions provided with the device, such as positioning the cuff at heart level and ensuring it is the right size for your wife's arm. If your wife is otherwise healthy and not experiencing any symptoms, these readings may not be alarming. However, it is always a good idea to consult with a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation and personalized advice based on her medical history and overall health status.

Can I drink coconut water after having angioplasty or a stent put in my heart? Also, what kind of fruits and grains juices are good for me following the procedure? I'm a bit worried about how to follow a proper diet now.
Yes, you can consume coconut water after angioplasty surgery. It is a good source of hydration and electrolytes. As for fruits and grains juice, you can consider consuming fresh fruit juices like apple juice or pomegranate juice. Additionally, you can also have barley or oat grain juice for added nutrition. Remember to consult with your healthcare provider for personalized recommendations based on your individual health condition.

I'm just wondering, after having an angiogram and getting a 3.2 stent placed, how long will I need to be on all these meds? I'm currently taking BRILINTA 90mg, ECOSPRIN 75mg, ALDACTONE 25mg, CARDACE 2.5mg, LASIX 40mg, IVABRAD 5mg, and ATOPLIP 80mg. It's a bit overwhelming and I'd like to know more about the typical duration for taking them.
