Cardio history- v high BP

2017-09-13 16:56:25
My mother, 68 has been treated for high BP and sugar for > 10 years. She has also undergone an RF ablation procedure. Currently her BP is v high so we consulted a doctor who asked for a few tests like CBC, Nt PRO BNP. CBC and other tests are normal but NT PRO BNP value is v high- 3114. Can you please advise if this is a serious condition and what is the typical cure?
