I'm really worried because I've been having chest pain for a few weeks now. Sometimes it spreads to my left arm and upper back, which is really scary. I've noticed that my heart's been beating really fast a couple of times this month, and when that happens, I start sweating and feel hot all over. I actually thought I might be having a heart attack. I went ahead and had an ECG done, and it says sinus tachycardia and nonspecific t abnormalities in the inferior leads. Should I be concerned about this? Also, I've taken medication for depression beforecould that be connected somehow?

I'm really worried about my dad. He had an angioplasty in June, and after that, he started having blood clots in his hand and thighs. The doctor thought it might be because of high dosage meds, so they reduced his mg, but now he's also been having blood coming from his mouth quite often. Can you help me figure out what might be going on?

The blood coming from your father's mouth could be due to a side effect of the medications he is taking. One common side effect of blood thinners, which are often prescribed after angioplasty to prevent blood clots, is bleeding. I would recommend consulting with the doctor again to discuss this new symptom. It is important to monitor his medication dosage and ensure it is appropriate for him. Additionally, the doctor may consider adjusting the dosage or switching to a different medication to help reduce the risk of bleeding from the mouth.

I'm really worried about my dad's health. He's been dealing with diabetes for about 20 years now, and he also has hypertension and CKD. His creatinine level is at 2.1. We're considering giving him GTN Sorbitrate CR 2.6 for his angina, but I'm concerned about any potential side effects it might have on his kidney and liver. Could this possibly lead to an increase in his creatinine levels? I'm just not sure if it's safe for him given his conditions.
