I'm currently taking telmisat 40 mg and ctd 6.25 along with amlosafe 5mg as you suggested. My blood pressure was initially 15097, and while the upper number has dropped to 130, the lower part is still around 100. Do you have any advice on what I should do next?

it seems like your systolic blood pressure has improved from 150 to 130 but the diastolic blood pressure is still elevated around 97. To further manage your blood pressure, I recommend adding a diuretic such as Hydrochlorothiazide 12.5 mg to your current regimen. This will help lower your diastolic blood pressure effectively. Please consult with your healthcare provider for proper monitoring and adjustment of your medication."

View allMy mom was diagnosed with chest pain on December 7, 2018. She's in the hospital, and the doctor did an angiography and is suggesting a bypass. I'm really worried and just want to know if the bypass is absolutely necessary and how long we can safely delay it. She's had blood pressure for about 10 years and diabetes for the last 4 years. Could you please advise?
"Hi Nirav, based on the information provided, if your mother has been diagnosed with chest pain and the doctor has recommended bypass surgery after performing Angiography, it is likely that the bypass surgery is necessary to improve blood flow to the heart. Given her history of high blood pressure and diabetes, it is important to follow the doctor's recommendation in a timely manner to prevent any further complications. I would recommend discussing any concerns or questions about the timing of the bypass surgery with the treating physician to determine the best course of action. In the meantime, it is important for your mother to continue taking her prescribed medications for blood pressure and diabetes as directed. For chest pain relief, she can take medications like Aspirin and Nitroglycerin as prescribed by the doctor. It is important to follow the doctor's advice regarding the dosage and frequency of these medications. Regular follow-up appointments with the doctor are also essential to monitor her condition and make any necessary adjustments to her treatment plan. If you have any further questions or concerns, feel free to ask. Take care."
