Question

I'm dealing with shortness of breath whenever I lift something heavy or climb stairs. A doctor mentioned heart valve replacement before. I'm curious about how serious this could be and what steps I might need to take. Could this really be related to the heart valve issue, or might there be something else going on? Would replacement be the only option?

Question

I'm really worried about my dad. He's been having some discomfort in his left hand, and sometimes right hand, that goes up to his wrist and neck. He's 55 and has been experiencing this for the past few months. His cholesterol levels are at 225, and his blood pressure is around 13075. Do you think these could be signs of a pre-heart attack? I would really appreciate any advice.

Question

I'm really worried about some symptoms I'm experiencing. I've been feeling this pain in the middle of my chest on the left side, and the back of my chest is hurting too. There's also a burning sensation in my stomach and esophagus, along with a cough. I went to the hospital and the doctor diagnosed it as burning in the stomach, gave me some medicine and an injection, and I felt a bit better afterward. But when I visited a physician later on, they did an ECG and mentioned something about a "left anterior hemiblock." Can you help me understand what might be going on or what this could mean?
