View allmy mom has a heart block and one artery is blocked is angioplasty really needed or are there other options we can try first
It's understandable to want to explore all options before considering angioplasty, especially when dealing with a heart block and a blocked artery. Angioplasty is a procedure that can help improve blood flow to the heart by opening blocked or narrowed arteries.

I've been having some trouble with my blood pressure readings. My right arm was at 14296, while the left was 12487. Is this something I should be worried about? On top of that, I've been dealing with feelings of depression and constant negative thoughts. My doctor told me I have some gastric issues like LAX CARDIA, EROSIVE ESOPHAGITIS, and ANTRAL EROSIVE GASTROPATHY. I've been on medication for a while, but they don't seem to be helping. Plus, my upper back has been aching, probably because I'm sitting a lot at work. Could you give me some advice on what I should do?
Regarding your blood pressure difference between your right and left arms, it is important to monitor this discrepancy and follow up with your healthcare provider. It could indicate underlying vascular issues that need to be addressed. As for your feelings of depression and negative thoughts, it is crucial to seek support from a mental health professional for proper evaluation and management. For your gastric issues including LAX CARDIA EROSIVE ESOPHAGITIS and ANTRAL EROSIVE GASTROPATHY, the medications you have been taking may need adjustment. You can try taking a proton pump inhibitor like Esomeprazole (brand name Nexium) along with a prokinetic agent like Metoclopramide (brand name Reglan) for better control of your symptoms. To manage your upper back pain due to prolonged sitting, you can try over-the-counter pain relievers like Ibuprofen (brand name Advil) for pain and inflammation. Additionally, incorporating regular stretching exercises and maintaining a good posture at work can help alleviate the discomfort. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for a comprehensive evaluation and personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific health needs.

I've just gotten over COVID, and I've noticed some changes in my heart rate. When I'm at rest, it's okay around 70-95, but when I climb stairs, it spikes to between 160-165. Even when I'm just walking at a pace of 5 kmh, it's around 130-140. Is this normal post-COVID, or should I be concerned?
