I've been dealing with high blood pressure for a few months now, and ever since, I've started having breathing issues at night when I'm trying to sleep. It's really concerning me, and I'm not quite sure what steps I should take to get this under control. Any advice on how to address this would be greatly appreciated.

View allI'm 27 and work as an engineer. I recently had angioplasty after a heart attack, and now I'm really worried about my future. Should I still consider getting married? I'm afraid if I tell a potential partner about my heart issues, they might back out. It's making me think about staying single forever. What should I do?
getting a heart attack at young age and undergoing angioplasty should not restrict you from leading a healthy and happy life. You can marry after a heart attack after informing your future wife. Regarding your cardiac rehabilitation and future lifestyle advice i need further details.

Hey, I came across a service called chc healthwatch that offers portable echocardiograms you can do at home. Are these tests just as reliable and accurate as the ones performed in a lab? I'm a bit hesitant to go to a lab right now because of the covid situation, so I'm hoping this could be a good alternative. What do you think?
"Hi, portable echocardiograms done at home can be reliable and valid for assessing heart function. One commonly used portable echocardiogram device is the Philips Lumify, which provides high-quality images and can be used by healthcare professionals for accurate diagnosis. However, it is important to ensure that the healthcare provider performing the test is trained and experienced in using the device to obtain accurate results. The convenience of at-home testing can be beneficial, especially during the current covid situation. It is recommended to discuss the option of portable echocardiogram with your healthcare provider to determine if it is suitable for your specific medical needs."
