I'm feeling really tense and I'm worried it might cause a heart attack. I feel weak and lazy, but everything else seems normal. I'm currently out of town for work. Should I be concerned?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Stress and tension can contribute to an increased risk of heart attack, especially if it is chronic and not properly managed. To help alleviate your symptoms and reduce the risk of complications, you can consider taking a medication like Propranolol (40mg) to help with anxiety and physical symptoms. Additionally, practicing stress-reducing techniques such as deep breathing exercises, meditation, and getting regular exercise can also be beneficial.

View allEarlier two heart blockages were found and now two more have been detected. I'm really confused would angioplasty be better or should I consider bypass surgery this time?
With four confirmed heart blockages, a discussion with your cardiologist about both angioplasty and bypass surgery is crucial. Bypass surgery is often favored when multiple blockages are present, especially if the left main coronary artery is involved. Angioplasty might be an option for less extensive blockages or if bypass surgery isn't feasible

I'm dealing with this left-side chest pain for the past 4 months, and it's starting to worry me. I saw a doctor who asked me to get an ECG, an X-ray, and a lipid profile. The ECG and X-ray came back normal, but my cholesterol and triglycerides were high. The meds he gave me brought those levels down within 2 months, but the chest pain just won't go away completely. I can still play and get my work done, but the pain shows up sometimes at night or when I'm at my desk. Any thoughts on what might be going on?
It's good that your cholesterol and triglyceride levels are normal now. Since your chest pain persists, it's important to consider other possible causes. Given your history of high cholesterol and chest pain, it's important to rule out any cardiac issues. I recommend discussing with your doctor the possibility of angina or other heart-related conditions. In the meantime, you can try taking a medication like **Ranitidine** 150mg twice a day to see if it helps with the chest pain, as it could be related to acid reflux. However, it's crucial to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.

My brother's been taking Olmezest H20 for his blood pressure, but sometimes it still shows high readings. The doctor recommended adding Amlodipine 5 mg to his routine. I'm wondering if that's a good idea or if switching to Olmezest H40 might be better. What do you think?
use amlodipine 5 mg
