I'm a bit concerned because I recently had an ECG and it turned out normal, but my blood pressure is at 14090. I'm 25 years old and weigh 96 kgs. Does this mean I have high blood pressure, and what can I do to lower it?

Question

I'm really concerned about my dad. He's 55 and dealing with diabetes and high blood pressure, and he was told he needs to decide about a second open-heart surgery. The first one he had was an off-pump coronary artery bypass using a vein from his leg. He's supposed to have this new surgery by the end of the year. Can you help me understand what kind of risks he might be facing with this surgery?

Question

I'm really worried about my wife. She's 63 and her blood pressure reading is 14090. She's been taking Amlokind 2.5 mg like the doctor advised, but I'm not sure if this reading is okay for her age. Our doctor said it's normal, but I just want to double-check. Is there anything else we should be doing or watching out for?

Question

I'm 23 and don't have any bad habits like alcohol or smoking, but because of my IT job, I'm sitting in front of a laptop a lot. I do eat fast food occasionally. Recently, I've felt a needle-like pain in my right upper chest that only lasts a second, and it has me worried about my heart health. I stress over various things, and I noticed my pulse is usually between 92-100 bpm. This morning it was 97 bpm. Im just wondering if my lack of physical activity might be affecting my heart. Plus, I have some gastric issues too. What do you think might be going on?
