I'm curious about something. I've been dealing with high blood pressure for a few years now, and my doctor put me on Amcard At 5mg. I take it every morning. My blood pressure doesn't seem manageable without it, so I'm wondering if it's safe to be on this medication for the rest of my life. Any advice would be really helpful!

View allI'm currently on medication for blood pressure and taking Zilokem 40 mg and Nexovas twice a day, but my blood pressure reading is 100150. Is this normal, or should I be concerned?
Review with your treating physician for dosage adjustment and recalibration. Try to include physical exercise of 150 minutes per week at least, in order to improve BP readings.

I'm a bit worried about my dad. He's 61 and has been dealing with diabetes and thalassemia. He had surgery for a blockage about six years ago, and now he's been feeling really fatigued. He just got a 2D echo done, and the report says RWMALVEF 50. Should I be concerned about these results? Is it something dangerous or is this considered normal given his medical history?
Patient's 2D echo report showing impression of Regional Wall Motion Abnormality (RWMA) with Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) of 50% indicates a decreased heart function. This can be concerning and may require further evaluation and management. To improve heart function and address fatigue, the patient can be prescribed medications like Carvedilol 6.25 mg twice daily and Lisinopril 5 mg once daily. Additionally, the patient may benefit from Aspirin 81 mg daily for cardiovascular protection. Regular follow-up with a cardiologist is recommended to monitor the condition and adjust treatment as needed.

I'm wondering if there's any test that can confirm whether my bypass surgery was successful. Are there any scans or assessments I should consider to be sure everything's okay?
Yes, after a bypass surgery, a coronary angiogram can be done to assess the success of the procedure. This test involves injecting a special dye into the coronary arteries and taking X-ray images to visualize any blockages or abnormalities. Additionally, an echocardiogram can also be performed to evaluate the heart function and assess the blood flow. These tests can help determine if the bypass surgery was successful.
