According to your medical condition (high blood pressure), age, body/mass index, sex, reproductive status (climax) and family history of cardio-vascular diseases you may want to have a few medical examinations like:
1. Clinical examination;
2. ECG, and
3. Blood laboratory analyses (blood count, cholesterol, triglycerides, creatinin, glucose, urea, liver status…).
All those examinations can help your doctor to calculate your risk for getting a cardio-vascular disorder including heart attack.
