Sir, Iam 49 years old my present BP is 130/90 some times and 140/100 some times, my present cretine leve is 1.6 to 1.7, how to reduce my cretine is any special medicne for this to reduce pls advice. I am going urine normal and my dopping is also normal, protine is normal. pls advice.

Ans: Hi. I don't think, high blood pressure is the cause for raised creatinine. You need to meet a nephrologist and try to ascertain the cause. Sometimes kidney biopsy also may be required to know the cause. That will give more clarity on the extent of kidney damage and also help us to make the treatment plan.

Ans: Since your BP is higher than the normal range, you should follow the doctors advice as of now. However, BP can certainly controlled overtime with ayurveda.

Hii myself Ayush because of my health issues I was unable to gave my theory exam of class 12 boards 2024 , but have given the practical exam so will 2024 will be considered as an appearance in class 12 or not , and i did my class 12 through nios board in 2025 and i am confident of scoring more than 75 percent , si which year will be considered as an appearance of mines 2024 ,2025 as I have decided to prepare for jee adv , and it has two attempt so if cbse taken my apprence in 2024 , I will not be eligible according to the rules , but I have asked form jossa helpline no they said if cbse doesn't consider 2024 as an appearance you are eligible, please try to answer this i will be greatfull . Try to gave me authentic answer

Ans: Hello Ayush
In your case, although you attempted the practical exam in 2024, you did not complete the theory exams, and consequently, no result was declared for you in 2024. As per the JEE Advanced guidelines, an "appearance" in Class XII is considered only if the board declares a result for that year, irrespective of whether or not the examination was conducted.

Since you completed your Class 12 through NIOS in 2025, with the board declaring your result in 2025, your first valid appearance is considered to be in 2025.
