I'm really worried about my mother-in-law. She's 65 and her blood pressure's at 18290. She's had a light headache and even vomited once. I'm wondering if these could be signs of a minor heart attack or if it's just the high blood pressure causing these issues. She's been taking Telma 20 for the high blood pressure and Vertigon D for vomiting. Could you help me understand what's going on?

Question

I'm really concerned about my blood pressure; it's at 180120. I'm looking for ways to bring it down. Does anyone have any advice on what I can do?

I've been feeling some tightness in my chest lately and it's making me a bit anxious, especially since I'm about to start a new job soon. I recently got an ECG done, and it mentions "LARGED PTFv1" which has me worried. My blood pressure was within normal range over the past couple of months, usually around 12080 or 12090, and my echo from last year was fine. Is this something I should be concerned about?
