Welcome at HCM
I have gone through your query and being your physician i completely understand your health concerns.
For how long u are suffering from it? Any other associated problem? like diabetes ? do u have a family history of heart problems?
Based upon your history it appear she has got systemic hypertension. Which drug she is taking? You should make a chart and document her BP reading four times a day . It will help your doctor to decide about the titration of the dose
If i am ur attending physician i will definitely look for the other associated problems. i will get her ECG along with ECHO. I will look at his kidney function tests as well as lipid profile.
Drugs for decreasing cholestrol will help to decrease the sequelae of the conditions since high cholestrol precipitates coronary narrowing.
She should have yearly baseline ecg echo along with kidney function tests and lipid profile to elicit the extent of disease.
As far as food are concerned she should avoid added salt along with fatty and oily food.
Meanwhile stay calm and continue with your medications
Get well soon
Hope your query is adequately addressed if you still have any feel free to ask
Regards
Dr Saad Sultan
