I'm 29 years old and I've been dealing with chest pain for the past week. My blood pressure is under control now, but the initial ECG was abnormal. We did a 2D echo and that came back normal. I've been prescribed medications like Nico Star, Angiplan 2.5, and Plevix. I feel like I'm too young for this kind of medication. Could you guide me on what I should do next?

It sounds like you are experiencing chest pain and have been prescribed medications for it. The medications you mentioned are: - Nico Star (Nicorandil) 2.5mg: This medication helps to widen the blood vessels and improve blood flow to the heart. The usual dose is 2.5mg twice daily. - Angiplan (Amlodipine) : This medication is used to treat high blood pressure and chest pain (angina). The usual dose is 5mg once daily. - Plavix (Clopidogrel): This medication helps to prevent blood clots. The usual dose is 75mg once daily. It is important to follow your doctor's advice and continue taking the medications as prescribed. These medications are commonly used to manage chest pain and other heart conditions, regardless of age. If you have any concerns about the medications or their side effects, please discuss them with your healthcare provider.

View allIs a pacemaker a good option for my dad? He's 61 and had a heart attack in March. His lvef was 15 at the time, and he's also diabetic. I'm worried about his condition and wondering if a pacemaker would really help.
A pacemaker may be helpful in your father's condition, especially if he has a low ejection fraction (15%). In cases of heart attack and heart failure, a pacemaker can help regulate the heart's rhythm and improve its overall function. Additionally, since your father is diabetic, it is important to manage both conditions effectively. In this case, along with a pacemaker, medications such as ACE inhibitors, beta-blockers, and diuretics may also be prescribed to help improve heart function and manage diabetes. It is important for your father to follow a healthy lifestyle, including a balanced diet, regular exercise, and monitoring of blood sugar levels. Please consult with your healthcare provider for a personalized treatment plan and to discuss the specific brand names and dosages of medications suitable for your father's condition.

I'm really worried about my 67-year-old dad. He had an angioplasty just five days ago and now he's running a fever. The doctor gave him Ceftum 500 and he's already taken two tablets, but the fever keeps coming back. Plus, he had constipation for a couple of days, so we tried giving him Looz syrup, and now he's got loose motions. What should we do?

I've been having chest pain when I walk for the last 8 days, but my ECG and 2D echo reports came back normal. I've had asthma since childhood, and I'm 48 years old, weighing 75 kg. When I get the chest pain, there's no breathlessness or anything else, just the pain. It eases up when I rest. My blood pressure is normal, too. What could be causing this?
cardiac markers and ecg are advised..
