Question 1

I'm taking Prolomet 25mg for my high heart rate and blood pressure and I've been on it for about a year. Sometimes when I catch a common cold, it gets hard to breathe and I take Budamet tablets. But when I talked to a pulmonologist, he said that Prolomet isnt good for long-term use because it can cause respiratory issues, and he suggested switching to OLMARK 40 instead. Does this sound right to you, or should I be concerned about making the change?

Accepted Answer

yes continue olmark 40 medication.

Question 2

I'm experiencing a vibration-like sensation in my chest, stomach, and head when my heart beats. When I lie down, I can feel those beats in my stomach, and when sitting, I sense them in my chest. While running, my heartbeat feels really intense. Can you help me understand if this is normal or something I should be concerned about?

Accepted Answer

u require an ecg and cardiac markers  investigations and cardiiologist opinion

Question 3

I'm really worried because my dad had a heart attack yesterday. After he got an injection, he seemed better, but today, we went to another hospital for an angiogram. They found two blockages that are over 80% and now theyre saying he needs angioplasty. I'm really wondering, what happens if we dont go through with the angioplasty? Are there other options we could consider? And is there any way we can try to clear the blockages naturally from home?

Accepted Answer

If the blockages in the coronary arteries are more than 80%, it is crucial to address them to prevent further complications such as another heart attack or even death. If angioplasty is not performed, the blockages can lead to reduced blood flow to the heart muscle, causing chest pain (angina), shortness of breath, and in severe cases, a heart attack. The main alternative to angioplasty for severe blockages is coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery, where a healthy blood vessel is used to bypass the blocked artery. However, the decision between angioplasty and CABG depends on various factors and should be discussed with the treating cardiologist. As for natural ways to remove blockages at home, it is important to note that while lifestyle changes such as a healthy diet, regular exercise, and not smoking can help prevent further blockages, they may not remove existing severe blockages. It is always best to follow the medical advice of your healthcare provider for the most appropriate treatment in this situation.

An ecg and cardiac markers are advised.
