I'm worried because about a month ago he got dizzy during the night and fell when he got up to use the washroom. Afterward, he felt sweaty but didn't have any chest pain. The next day, his blood pressure was really high at 180110 and his sugar levels were up too. The doctor mentioned RWMA but everything else looked good, and they're suggesting an angiography. Is that really necessary, or are there other options we could consider? He's never had issues like this before, and it all started a month ago when he began these medications: Zilarta 40, Metsmall 1000, Rosurica A 75, and Synx 500. What do you think?

The symptoms of dizziness, sweating, high blood pressure (180110), and elevated sugar levels, along with the doctor's recommendation for angiography, indicate a need for further evaluation of the cardiovascular system. Angiography is a common procedure used to visualize the blood vessels and identify any blockages or abnormalities in the heart. Given the patient's symptoms and test results, angiography may be necessary to assess the extent of any potential heart-related issues, such as coronary artery disease. It is important to follow the doctor's recommendation for further evaluation and treatment to ensure the best possible outcome for the patient's health.

I'm really puzzled about my friend's sudden passing. He was perfectly fine until about 10:30 in the morning, but out of nowhere, he had a severe cardiac arrest and died by 10:50. In the 48 days leading up to his death, he rarely ate food from home. I can't help but wonder if there might be anything like a slow poison that could have affected him. Could you shed some light on what might have happened?

While I understand your concern about potential poisoning given the changes in his eating habits, sudden cardiac arrest can happen without warning even in people who appear healthy. The period of irregular eating could be related to various factors like stress, depression, or underlying health issues. If you have serious concerns about the circumstances, I would encourage you to share them with the relevant authorities and discuss with his family about requesting an autopsy if one hasn't been performed. Most importantly, please make sure you're getting support during this difficult time - losing someone suddenly is incredibly challenging, and it's natural to have questions and seek answers about what happened.

My 58-year-old husband was diagnosed with severe concentric LV hypertrophy. The doctor mentioned surgery, but we're wondering if medications and lifestyle changes could help improve his condition instead. Is surgery really the only option, or can his heart health get better with other treatments?

While severe concentric left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) may sometimes require surgery, it's not always the only option. Medications and lifestyle changes can be effective in managing the condition and potentially improving heart health. The best approach depends on the cause and severity of the LVH.

I'm really concerned about this report I got saying there's an "abnormal ECG" with an "SCT wave abnormality" and something about "considering inferior ischemia." I'm an ASD device patient, and I'm not sure what all this means for me. Could you help explain it and let me know if I should be worried?
