I'm really worried about my 67-year-old dad. He had an angioplasty just five days ago and now he's running a fever. The doctor gave him Ceftum 500 and he's already taken two tablets, but the fever keeps coming back. Plus, he had constipation for a couple of days, so we tried giving him Looz syrup, and now he's got loose motions. What should we do?

I've been experiencing some really strange sensations around my heart. It feels heavy, like my heart is beating too hard or could stop at any moment. Sometimes I even feel like an electric shock goes through my body. I've had an echo and TMT test, and both came back normal. The doctors say my heart is perfect and healthy, but I can't shake the feeling that I might have a cardiac arrest or heart attack at any time. I'm 18 years old and honestly, it's kind of freaking me out. Can you give me some advice or insights on what might be going on?

I can hear my heartbeat when I lay down, and sometimes my shirt even moves with it. I can actually see it happening. My ECG came back normal, so I'm curious about what's going on. What could be causing this?

When you hear your heart sound when lying down and notice movement of your t-shirt along with it, it could be due to a condition called pulsatile tinnitus. This can occur when there is an increase in blood flow near the ear, causing you to hear your heartbeat. In this case, you can try using a white noise machine or background music to help mask the sound. If the symptoms persist or worsen, you may need to consult with an ENT specialist for further evaluation and management.
