I'm really concerned about my father who is 56 and had pneumonia during his COVID infection. Although he's now COVID-negative, he's been prescribed Voritrol 200mg. I'm worried because he had a stent placed four years ago, is on blood thinners, and also has diabetes. Can you tell me if it's safe for him to take Voritrol given his medical history?

View allI'm really worried right now because my mom just got her test results back and it shows she has a negative troponin test. I'm not sure what this means for her health. Can you please explain what steps we should take next or what we need to watch out for? Would really appreciate some advice on this.
Having a negative Trop T test indicates that there are no signs of a heart attack. It is a good sign. However, further evaluation may be needed to determine the cause of her symptoms. It is important to consult with a healthcare professional for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.

I'm having some trouble with my blood pressureit keeps staying high around 160111 and 155100 even after I've taken my medication. Can you help me understand why this might be happening and what I can do about it?
High blood pressure can be a serious condition if not properly controlled. I recommend you start taking Amlodipine (brand name Norvasc) 5mg once daily. Additionally, you can also add Hydrochlorothiazide (brand name Microzide) 12.5mg once daily to help lower your blood pressure. It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and make lifestyle changes such as reducing salt intake, exercising regularly, and maintaining a healthy weight.
