Her BNP is slightly elevated. That could suggest worsening of heart function and initial stages of heart failure. You need to pay a visit to your cardiologist for further assessment.
please advised lipid profile&RFT&Blood suger fasting &Random.sending old reports
According to her age her NT proBNP is slightly on a higher side , it should be less than 125. I am not sure what medicines she has been taking , high level of NT proBNP signifies heart failure. It will be more appropriate if you kindly send me the medicines she has been taking beside insulin
Could you go for her ecg and echo along with all Baseline and kindly share her previous labs and prescriptions
