My brother's been taking Olmezest H20 for his blood pressure, but sometimes it still shows high readings. The doctor recommended adding Amlodipine 5 mg to his routine. I'm wondering if that's a good idea or if switching to Olmezest H40 might be better. What do you think?

View allI've been having these random chest pains for the last three months and just did a TMT test today. I couldn't go past 7 minutes, and my heart rate shot up to 190 really fast, so they stopped the test early. The doctor said it's nothing to worry about, but I'm still feeling a bit heavyheaded and stressed. I also have anxiety and my heart rate was already at 114 before the test even started. Does all this sound normal or okay?
It sounds like you experienced some discomfort during the TMT test due to your anxiety and elevated heart rate. Since the doctor mentioned that there is nothing to worry about, it is likely that the symptoms you experienced were related to your anxiety rather than any underlying heart issue. However, it is important to address your anxiety to prevent such symptoms in the future. To help manage your anxiety and heart rate, you can consider taking a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol. The usual dosage for anxiety-related tachycardia is 25-100mg once daily. This medication can help lower your heart rate and reduce symptoms of anxiety. Additionally, you may benefit from an anti-anxiety medication such as Alprazolam. The usual dosage for anxiety is 0.25-0.5mg three times daily. This medication can help alleviate feelings of anxiety and reduce physical symptoms such as rapid heart rate. It is important to follow up with your doctor to discuss your symptoms and explore treatment options for your anxiety. Regular exercise, stress management techniques, and therapy can also be beneficial in managing anxiety and improving overall heart health.

I'm currently 30 weeks pregnant and I've been told there's an increased RS ratio in V1, which might suggest an early transition or a posterior infarct. I'm taking labetalol 100 and Ecosprin 75. I'm really worried about what this means for me and the baby. Could you help me understand this better?

I've been diagnosed with triple vessel disease, and they recommended angioplasty. I'm really hoping for a less invasive approach, like EECP or chelation therapy, but I can't find any doctors willing to even discuss these alternatives. I'm feeling a bit stuck and just wondering what other options might be out there for me. Would love any advice or insights on possible treatments besides surgery.
Triple vessle disease is a red flag that your heart is readyto compromise,dont look for alternatives,follow your doctors advice
