Hi Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..
I have gone through your query and can understand your concern...
Borderline ischaemia of heart means your heart muscle is getting some less supply of blood. This must have been recorded on a treadmill test. Borderline ischaemia of heart in a 66 year person is somewhat normal finding & can arise just because of increased blood pressure.
You must not worry you have been given blood pressure lowering divan 80mg & a beta blocker such as tenormin, The blood supply would improve after taking these medicines.
Refer to your cardiologist
Hope this information helps
