I'm feeling really worried because my blood pressure is extremely high and it's just not coming down to normal levels. I've been taking cardace 5mg, but it doesn't seem to be working. What could be causing this, and should I be doing something else to manage my blood pressure?

View allI'm a bit worried about my ECG report that mentions 'mild ST depressions in the inferolateral leads.' Is this something serious that I need to be concerned about? Can it be fixed or managed in some way? I'm not really sure what it means and would love some guidance.
Mild ST depressions in the inferolateral leads on an ECG can indicate underlying issues such as myocardial ischemia (reduced blood flow to the heart muscle), which can be a cause for concern. It's important to follow up with your cardiologist for a comprehensive evaluation to determine the exact cause. They may recommend further tests such as an echocardiogram, stress test, or coronary angiography to assess the severity and plan appropriate treatment. Management may include lifestyle changes, medications, or procedures to improve blood flow to the heart. Please discuss these findings with your healthcare provider for personalized advice and treatment.

I've been using my MI band to keep track of my heart rate while I'm exercising and working out. Lately, I've noticed that my heart rate sometimes drops suddenly and steeply according to the fitness tracker. I've got a specific heart rate record from one of my workouts attached here. Should I be worried about this? What might be causing these changes, and are there other symptoms I should be on the lookout for?
Sudden and steep drops in heart rate during exercise can be concerning. It is important to rule out any underlying heart conditions. The probable causes could include dehydration, overexertion, medication side effects, or an underlying heart rhythm disorder. Other symptoms to watch out for may include dizziness, lightheadedness, chest pain, or shortness of breath. I recommend consulting a healthcare professional for a thorough evaluation and appropriate management.
