I'm really concerned about my heart, as I've had a PTCA stent placed to my right coronary artery and right internal artery. But lately, I've been experiencing some wet palpitations now and again. I have Type 2 diabetes and hypertension and I'm 56 years old. Should I be worried about these palpitations, or is this somewhat normal for someone in my situation? What should I do about it?

View allI've been experiencing this weakness in my chest and it's making me really anxious. I'm trying to figure out what's going on because sometimes I also get this heaviness when I breathe and feel dizzy. It even makes me feel shaky at times. What could be causing these symptoms?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms related to anxiety, which can cause chest tightness, dizziness, and shaky feelings. However, these symptoms can also be linked to other conditions such as heart issues or respiratory problems. I recommend consulting with a healthcare provider to get a proper evaluation and ensure it's not something more serious.

My dad is 55 and just had a treadmill test that showed inducible ischemia. The doctor recommended an angio does this mean there's a blockage? Can this be treated with meds or will he need surgery? If it gets treated, could it come back later? Also, does this raise his risk of heart failure? Really concerned about what this means for him.
TMT positive suggests that certain part of the heart is not receiving adequate blood supply in the time of stress which means that there has to be some amount of blockage in the blood vessels supplying blood to the heart so 2 things should be done Medications like blood thinners cholesterol and others heart medication used to be started and will continue for at least a long time if not life long And a coronary or CT angiography needs to be done to check the percentage of blockage and the location and intensity of severity of disease according to to which the treatment will depend so I will advise you to get the above tests done as soon as possible because he carries a risk of eminent heart attack with TMT positive

I've been having some pain in my left arm and jaw, along with a toothache and feeling weak, but there's no chest pain. Could these be signs of a heart attack? I'm kind of worried and would like to understand what this might mean.
