I'm a bit worried because I woke up this morning with my heart racing and ended up going to the ER. They told me I have PSVT and PVC. It felt like my heart stopped and then started again, but they said my echo was normal. Are these arrhythmias something I should be concerned about?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
PSVT and PVC can be concerning but are usually not life-threatening. However, it is important to manage them to prevent complications. For PSVT, medications like Verapamil or Metoprolol can be prescribed to control heart rate during episodes. For PVC, if symptoms are bothersome, medications like Propranolol can be used to reduce their frequency. Regular follow-up with a cardiologist is recommended to monitor your condition and adjust treatment as needed.

View allI'm 52 and had bypass surgery back in 2004. Right now, I'm getting chelation treatment for my heart (35EF). I'm not sure if this is the best option for me can you explain whether chelation treatment is really helpful in my case?
Stop this treatment immediately. At present this treatment is not advocated by any professional cardiac society. U may end up having kidney failure. Always get time tested therapies. If y want u can get second opinion by other certified cardiologist

My dad's angiogram showed a 95% block in his LAD, but the SPECT test said only 25-30% of his heart muscle is viable. The PET CT later showed 60% hibernating myocardium that's still viable. Should we go for revascularization, and if so, would a stent or bypass be better? What are the risks, or can we just stick to meds since he's stable right now?
Medicine is very important before and after procedure but it's not enough in this case Lucky no pain gives you time but few of left myocardial muscle will die if we don't give blood to it so sitting on it is not a good idea Than should not have done all scans because now they are telling you to act upon Single block easily removed by stent takes ten minutes and. 20 years results comparable to bypass . I would get myself cut for no reason Bypass is optional if stent can't be done or too many blocks
