I'm a bit concerned because my blood pressure is reading 11290. That means my diastolic pressure is high, right? I've also had a light headache. Should I be worried about this, and could you suggest some treatments?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Your blood pressure reading of 11290 with a high diastolic pressure of 90 may indicate hypertension. To help lower your blood pressure and alleviate your symptoms of light headache, you can try taking an antihypertensive medication such as Amlodipine (Norvasc) 5mg once daily. It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and make lifestyle changes such as reducing salt intake, exercising regularly, and managing stress. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

View allI've been keeping an eye on my blood pressure lately, and it's been around 140100. I've noticed I'm getting headaches more frequently. Should I be worried about these numbers or the headaches? Is this something I need to get checked out or change in my routine? Any advice would be really helpful.
A blood pressure of 140100 is considered high and can contribute to headaches. I recommend you start taking Amlodipine (brand name Norvasc) 5mg once daily to help lower your blood pressure. Additionally, you can take Acetaminophen (brand name Tylenol) 500mg for your headaches as needed, up to 3 times a day. Remember to monitor your blood pressure regularly and make lifestyle changes such as reducing salt intake and increasing physical activity.

I'm really confused because I keep having chest pain, but my tmt, ecg, and echo are all normal. I've had about 20 ecgs, but everything checks out fine. I'm not sure what to do next. Any ideas or advice would be really appreciated.

So I got my ECG results and there's an RSR pattern showing up in lead 3 only, while everything else seems normal. Should I be worried about this, or is it just a normal variation? Could you help me understand what this might mean?
