I'm really worried because I've been feeling breathless for the past two days and I've noticed swelling in my right leg and hand. I've been taking Dytor 40mg every day, but it doesn't seem to be helping. Could this be something serious? What should I do next?

It sounds like you might be experiencing fluid retention, which could be related to heart or kidney function. Since you're on Dytor without improvement, it's important to follow up with a doctor urgently for a thorough evaluation, including heart and kidney function tests, to determine the cause of your symptoms.

Question

My grandma's been told she's got this issue with leaking valve shrinkage after she had some chest pain recently, and shes gotta get an angiography. I'm kinda worried about the risks involved with angiography at her age. If it turns out she needs surgery after the angiography, how safe and effective is that gonna be? She's got high blood pressure, but it's under control with meds. She doesn't have any other health issues. Can you help me understand what we're looking at here?

Question

I'm experiencing this pinching needle-like pain mainly in my left arm, back, left nipple, and even my left leg. It's really random and just comes and goes. Should I be worried that this might be related to a heart problem?

Question

I'm a bit concerned about my latest ECG report and I was hoping you could help me understand it better. The QRS is 74 ms, the QTQTc Baz is 326420 ms, PR is 110 ms, P is 84, and the RRPP is 602600 ms. It also mentions PQrsT at 567627 degrees. Is there anything in there that I should be worried about? I've attached my cholesterol report too, if that helps give a clearer picture.
