Question 1

I'm really concerned about my dad's heart health. He had a mild heart attack back in 1995 but never went through any angiography. He seemed fine up until December 2021, when a routine check-up revealed he has aortic stenosis. It's a bit confusing because he doesn't have any symptoms like breathlessness, and his cholesterol levels are normal. He's been on Ecosprin Gold 10 since 2014, but now another cardiologist is suggesting he switches to Ecosprin AV 7510. I'm just wondering, is that change in medication okay? I really need some expert advice on this.

It sounds like you may be experiencing palpitations along with chest pain. Since your ECG and echo were normal, it is less likely to be related to a serious heart problem. However, persistent symptoms should be further evaluated. I recommend trying a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol (25-50mg) once daily to help with the palpitations and chest pain. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises or meditation may also help alleviate your symptoms. If the symptoms persist, it would be best to follow up with your cardiologist for further evaluation and management.
