My dad's been dealing with really high blood pressure, it's at 190100, and it's been like this for a week now. It's pretty concerning because he's also been managing diabetes for like 10 years, high blood pressure issues for 5 years, and kidney problems for 3 years. Even though he's on medication, his blood pressure isn't budging. What should we do in this situation? Could there be something else to try or look into?

I'm wondering if nebicard 2.5 could cause erectile dysfunction or maybe even affect sperm quality. I've heard that beta blockers might lead to ED, so I'm a bit worried. Could you shed some light on this?

I've been dealing with pain in my left hand and left chest even though my 2D echo, TMT, and chest X-ray all came back normal. It's been a couple of months, and I've also got these gaustic issues. I'm taking razol for it, but I'm wondering if you think I should get any more tests done. Could there be something we're missing?
Given your normal 2D echo, TMT, and chest X-ray, yet persistent left hand and chest pains, it is possible that your symptoms are related to gastrointestinal issues, especially since you have been experiencing gastric problems for the past two months and are currently taking Razo-L (rabeprazole). Gastric issues, including acid reflux, can sometimes cause chest pain that mimics heart-related pain. While your current tests are reassuring, if your symptoms persist, it may be helpful to undergo further evaluation such as an upper gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy to assess for conditions like gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) or peptic ulcers. Additionally, consider consulting a gastroenterologist to further explore and manage your gastric symptoms.
