I'm really worried about my dad. He suddenly started having this pain on both sides of his chest and hes having trouble breathing. The pain gets really bad when he walks or even with the slightest movement. We got his ECG, CBC, and Trop T reports done and they all came back normal, but it's been four days and he hasn't felt any better. What could be causing this and what should we do next?

View allI'm really worried about my father's condition. He's been dealing with coronary heart disease for about 4 years now and we've already tried various treatments and seen local doctors here in Pontianak, Indonesia. The problem is, he got really traumatized by the high doses or hard drugs prescribed to him, so now we're mainly relying on some herbal remedies like this red juice from Papua called Kuansu. It seems to help a bit, but not for long. A few doctors have mentioned that he might need a ring or bypass operation, but that's honestly really tough for us financially. I'm curious if there's any alternative treatment for coronary heart disease that you could suggest, especially considering our situation.
In cases where medication and herbal remedies have not provided sufficient improvement for coronary heart disease, and surgical options like stents or bypass surgery are not feasible due to economic constraints, another alternative treatment option to consider is medical therapy. Medications such as Atorvastatin (Lipitor) to lower cholesterol, Aspirin to reduce blood clotting, and Metoprolol to manage blood pressure and heart rate can be beneficial in managing coronary heart disease. It is important to consult with a healthcare professional to determine the most appropriate medication regimen and dosage for your father's specific condition.

I've been struggling with this issue for about two years now, and I'm really hoping for some insight. I'm a 27-year-old I.T. professional and this all started with sudden bouts of dizziness and sweating. I've gone through all the usual tests, like MRI and blood work, and the only thing that came up was a low B12 level at 83. Over time, I've begun feeling detached, and my doctor mentioned it might be anxiety. The problem hasnt gone away though, and now I sometimes experience fluttering, dizziness, and vomiting. It feels like I might faint, but I never actually do. I've had TMT and ECG tests twice, and both were normal. I worry it could be some kind of arrhythmia, but during these episodes, my heart rate seems stable with no major changes. It's confusing because these episodes don't seem linked to stress and only last a few seconds. I'm really anxious about this and just looking for a professional perspective on what's happening.
It sounds like you are experiencing symptoms of panic attacks, which can be very distressing. The dizziness, sweating, fluttering sensation, vomiting, and feeling like you might pass out are all common symptoms of panic attacks. Since your heart rate remains normal during these episodes and your cardiac tests (TMT, ECG) have come back normal, it is less likely to be related to arrhythmia. One possible treatment option for your symptoms could be to take an anti-anxiety medication such as **Xanax (Alprazolam)**. The usual starting dose for adults is 0.25 mg to 0.5 mg taken three times a day. However, it is important to consult with a doctor before starting any medication. In addition to medication, therapy such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) can also be very effective in managing panic attacks. It can help you understand and cope with the triggers of your anxiety. It is important to follow up with your doctor regularly to monitor your symptoms and response to treatment. If you continue to experience these episodes despite treatment, further evaluation may be needed.
