I'm really worried about my mom. Her blood pressure is quite high, 170100, even though she's on medication. She's not eating well and feels really weak. Do you have any suggestions for home remedies or foods she can try? Maybe some juices that could help? I'm just trying to find anything that might make her feel better.

To help control your mother's high blood pressure (170100), consider these home remedies and dietary suggestions in conjunction with her prescribed medication: encourage her to drink plenty of water, herbal teas like hibiscus, and juices like pomegranate, beetroot, and amla; incorporate potassium-rich foods like bananas, leafy greens, and sweet potatoes; add omega-3 fatty acid sources like fatty fish, flaxseeds, and walnuts; use herbs and spices like turmeric, ginger, and cinnamon; and consider supplements like CoQ10, vitamin D, and magnesium

I've been dealing with anxiety and blood pressure issues and was initially on betacap tr40. My doctor switched me over to telma 20, but I started experiencing palpitations. So I saw another doctor who changed my medication to nebicard 2.5, but I'm still having those palpitations. Now, my psychiatrist is suggesting I take petril beta at night. Is it okay if I take nebicard 2.5 in the morning and petril beta at night? I'm a bit concerned and just want to make sure it's safe.

u have to take petril beta at night only.

I'm really worried about my dad. He recently visited a doctor who suggested some blood tests along with ECG and TMT. Thankfully, all his blood parameters, including cholesterol, TG, and lipid levels, are within the normal range. But during the TMT, he experienced very mild chest pain, and the doctor marked it as TMT positive for RMI. I'm really concerned about what this means. Should we be considering angiography and maybe even angioplasty for him?

I'm a bit worried after my recent check-up. A few months back, my doctor noticed an LBBB on my ECG and recommended a 2D echo, which thankfully came back normal. I wasn't feeling any symptoms then, but now, two months later, I've started experiencing light pains that move from the left to the right side of my chest. It's not constant, but should I be concerned about these pains? Any advice would be really helpful.

"Based on your description of having occasional light pain in the left and right side of your chest, it is important to consider your history of LBBB (Left Bundle Branch Block) and the normal 2D echo test results. Since you are experiencing chest pain, even though it is intermittent, it is essential to rule out any cardiac issues. I recommend taking Acetaminophen 500mg for pain relief as needed. However, it is crucial to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and monitoring, especially considering your history of LBBB. If the pain persists or worsens, do not hesitate to seek medical attention for a thorough assessment."
