I have a 147/69 BP with 58 pulse. I'm a 58-year-old white male with Type II Diabetes (well managed). I'm on 5mg of Lisinopril once a day for about the last 6 years. Is this alarming, and do I need to be worried?

I have a bulging disk that presses against a nerve, causing constant pain in my right leg. I have trouble driving and sleeping due to the pain. I am currently taking Hydrocodone, but I requested a longer-lasting pain medication, which my doctor prescribed as Morphine. However, I got sick from the Morphine and went back to Hydrocodone. I asked my doctor to change my medication, but he refused and did not answer my emails. I am concerned about the safety of going cold turkey and feel betrayed by my doctor. What other options or medications could help manage my chronic pain?

My husband was pulling on something heavy when the clamp came loose, causing him to be propelled backwards, hit the back of his head, and fall to the ground. He experienced dizziness and 'seeing stars' for a while, now has a large lump on his head, and is coherent. How do I know if I need to take him to be seen, and is there anything I should do for him in the interim?
