View allIs it really possible to have pulmonary artery hypertension even when the pulmonary artery looks normal and there's no turbulence? I'm just trying to wrap my head around how that can happen. Could there be underlying issues or does it indicate a different problem? I'm a bit concerned and just trying to understand why this might occur.
Yes, it is possible to have pulmonary artery hypertension even with normal pulmonary artery anatomy and no turbulence. In such cases, the hypertension may be due to other underlying factors such as inflammation, vasoconstriction, or other vascular abnormalities. Treatment for pulmonary artery hypertension may include medications such as Sildenafil (Revatio) or Tadalafil (Adcirca) to help relax the pulmonary arteries and improve blood flow. Dosage and duration of treatment should be determined by a healthcare professional.

I'm taking Metocard XL 12.5 once daily as prescribed by my doctor. My blood pressure is currently at 11276 and my pulse is 59. Is it okay to take the medication just once a day, or should I consider twice daily?
The medication prescribed to you, Metocard XL 12.5, is typically taken once a day for the management of high blood pressure. Since your current blood pressure is within normal range (11276) and your pulse rate is 59, it seems that once daily dosing is appropriate for you. It is important to follow your doctor's instructions regarding the dosage and frequency of the medication.
