I'm really worried about a loved one who's at risk for a heart attack. I've been reading a bit and came across the term "loading dose." Could you explain when it's appropriate to use a loading dose for someone having a heart attack? Also, I'm curious about how it should be administered to a person. Lastly, could you walk me through the basic steps of first aid for a heart attack?

Question

I'm really worried about my dad, he's 87 and had an angioplasty a few years ago. We just found out he has mild bradycardia. The doctor gave him Flavedon MR, but now he's sleeping almost all day and feeling a bit dizzy. Should we keep him on this medication, or is there something else we should try?

I've been using my MI band to keep track of my heart rate while I'm exercising and working out. Lately, I've noticed that my heart rate sometimes drops suddenly and steeply according to the fitness tracker. I've got a specific heart rate record from one of my workouts attached here. Should I be worried about this? What might be causing these changes, and are there other symptoms I should be on the lookout for?
