I'm wondering if you can help me understand what's going on with my blood pressure. It's been fluctuating a lot, sometimes shooting up to 180 over 110, and my pulse rate gets really high too. My heart and sugar levels are fine, but this blood pressure issue is worrying me. Do you have any advice or medication suggestions to help stabilize it?

View allI'm a bit concerned about some of my recent health numbers and would love some insight. My creatinine level came back at 0.66, my HbA1c is 6.3, and my triglycerides are at 208. Also, my LDL is 100.40. On top of that, I'm dealing with blood pressure issues. Can you help me understand what these numbers mean for my overall health and if there's anything specific I should be doing or watching out for?
Your creatinine level is within normal range. Your HbA1c level is slightly elevated, indicating borderline diabetes control. Your triglyceride level is high, and your LDL cholesterol level is also elevated. For your blood pressure problems, you can start taking a combination medication like Telmisartan 40mg + Amlodipine 5mg once daily to help control your blood pressure. Additionally, you can take Atorvastatin 20mg at night to help lower your LDL cholesterol level. It is also important to make lifestyle changes such as following a healthy diet, exercising regularly, and avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol consumption to improve your overall health.

I'm trying to figure out how long the results of a treadmill test are good for. I had mine done about 28 days ago, and it was negative. I'm also curious about how long an ECG test stays valid. Can you help me out with this?
A treadmill test (TMT) result is typically considered valid for about 6 months to 1 year, depending on the individual's health condition and any changes in symptoms. Since your TMT was negative 28 days ago, it should still be considered valid. As for an ECG test, it is generally valid for a shorter period, usually around 1-2 weeks. If you have any concerns or new symptoms, it is advisable to consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation.

I'm feeling really tired and weak after my angioplasty. I'm also sweating a lot, and I've got these cold shivers. Walking is hard because of that, and I've noticed five black dots on the sole of my foot. Is this something I should be worried about? What could be causing all this?
It is post angioplasty complications.. The complications will settle within 2-3 days, if persisting cardiologist opinion is advised to the patient..
