View allI'm really worried about my brother. He had a heart attack in March 2017, and it turned out he had a 100% blockage in a left artery. He's been taking meds like planep 25mg, sexeloxon, and roustor gold10 to help with this. I'm just wondering, can medication actually remove the blockage, or is that not possible? And how do we even check if the blockage has improved or if it's still completely blocked?
To check if the blockage has been reduced or is still at 100%, he can undergo a diagnostic test called a coronary angiography. This procedure will provide detailed images of the arteries and can show if there has been any improvement in the blockage. It is important to follow up with his cardiologist for further evaluation and management."

I'm really worried about my mom, she's 40 and has been dealing with rheumatic heart disease. She had valve replacement surgery and is now on various medications, including something called cotton, but she's still facing issues like shortness of breath and a fast heart rate. I'm wondering if it's safe to try Ayurvedic treatment instead? Are there any risks if she stops her allopathy medicine in favor of Ayurvedic options?
Switching from allopathy (conventional medicine) to Ayurvedic treatment for a serious condition like rheumatic heart disease, especially after valve replacement surgery, should be done cautiously and under the guidance of healthcare professionals. Ayurvedic medications may have interactions with the current medications she is taking, so it is important to consult with her cardiologist before making any changes.
