I've been dealing with some chest pain for a few days now, and I decided to get an X-ray done. I'm really anxious and can't help but wonder if there's something serious going on. What do you think?

I'm 25 and dealing with prehypertension. My blood pressure is at 14090. I've had tests done and everything seems normal, like my lipid profile, liver function, and kidney function test. I've been eating mostly green veggies and getting some exercise every morning, but I still can't seem to get my blood pressure under control. Do you think I should consider medication?
Since your blood pressure is not controlled despite lifestyle changes, medication may be necessary to help manage your pre-hypertension. I recommend starting with a low-dose of a medication like Losartan (brand name: Cozaar) 25mg once daily. It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and follow up with your healthcare provider to adjust the dosage if needed.

Hey, I've got a situation that's been bothering me. My blood pressure is pretty high, around 16510, which I know is far from normal. My lifestyle is generally healthyI don't smoke or drink alcohol. I also don't deal with anxiety or lead a sedentary lifestyle, and I avoid fast food. My blood sugar is normal when I fast. I'm just confused about why my BP is still high. Could you help me figure out what's going on?
High blood pressure of 165100 should be addressed promptly to prevent complications. I recommend starting with medication to lower your blood pressure. You can start with a combination of Amlodipine 5mg and Lisinopril 10mg once daily. Additionally, lifestyle modifications such as regular exercise, a healthy diet low in sodium, and stress management techniques can also help in managing your blood pressure. Regular monitoring and follow-up with your healthcare provider are important to ensure your blood pressure is well controlled.
