View allI'm concerned about my blood pressure spiking in the evenings. It goes up to 16090, but stays under 12580 throughout the day until around 5pm. I'm 36, weigh 78kgs, and my height is 5 feet 4.5 inches. Is there something specific causing this? Any advice on what I should do?
To help manage your blood pressure spikes in the evening, you can consider taking a medication like Amlodipine (brand name Norvasc) 5mg daily in the evening. Additionally, lifestyle modifications such as reducing salt intake, regular exercise, maintaining a healthy weight, and managing stress can also be beneficial in controlling your blood pressure. Remember to consult with your doctor before starting any new medication.

My dad has a heart problem, and the angiography report shows his left and right arteries are about 70% blocked. I'm really worried and trying to figure out what's best for him. Should he go for angioplasty or a bypass surgery? What would you suggest?
In the case of your father with 70% blockage in both the left and right arteries, the best treatment option would be bypass surgery. Bypass surgery is recommended for patients with severe blockages in multiple arteries. It involves creating new pathways for blood to flow to the heart muscle by using a blood vessel graft. This procedure can improve blood flow to the heart and reduce the risk of a heart attack. The specific medication and dosage post-surgery will be prescribed by the treating doctor.

I've got some concerns about a recent ECG reading. It showed a mild STT change, and my heart rate was at 128. Is this something I should be worried about? Could the tachycardia be causing the STT change?
Mild ST-T changes in an ECG can be non-specific and may not always indicate a serious issue. Yes, tachycardia can cause ST-T changes due to the increased heart rate. A heart rate of 128 in an ECG may be considered tachycardia, which can be a concern depending on the underlying cause and symptoms. To address this, you can take a beta-blocker like Metoprolol 25mg to help control the heart rate and reduce the risk of further complications.
