Is it gas or heart attack?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Heart attack feels like pressure on chest cannot be relieved by antacids,associated with breathlessness. One can not entirely differentiate chest pain due to gas from chest pain due to heart attack based on symptoms only. You may need to visit a hospital and get evaluated by a health-care provider.

View allI'm experiencing some mild pain on the left side of my chest since yesterday, and it seems to occur every few hours. Could this be related to my heart? If it is, what steps should I take next?
Chest pain can have various causes, including heart-related issues. It's important to get evaluated by a healthcare professional to determine the exact cause of your symptoms. In the meantime, you can take a low dose of aspirin (75-100mg) as a precautionary measure. If the pain persists or worsens, seek immediate medical attention.

I'm really worried because my father has an LVEF of 35% as per his 2D echo report. I'm trying to figure out what kind of treatment he might need. Should we be considering an angiography? He hasn't had a heart attack and doesn't feel any chest pain. I did some reading and think maybe it's arrhythmia because about three years ago, he nearly fainted while cycling due to stress. Since then, he's been on medication for hypertension. Could you tell me what steps we should take next?
Since the patients LVEF (left ventricular ejection fraction) is 35.. indicates that he is having severe heart damage .. Some of the causes uncontrolled hypertension , heart muscle diseasesex cardiomyopathy, heart attack and heart valve issues..Angiography is needed since echo report reveals severe heart dysfunction.Treatment invoves ACE inhibitors ,calcium channel blockers and beta blockers..

Can I take Dilzem CD 120 about 40 minutes after Rabsec PPI? Are there any side effects I should be worried about?
It is generally safe to take Dilzem CD 120 after 40 minutes of Rabsec (PPI). However, it is important to note that there may be a potential interaction between these two medications. Dilzem CD 120 is a calcium channel blocker used to treat high blood pressure and chest pain, while Rabsec (PPI) is a proton pump inhibitor used to reduce stomach acid. Some potential side effects of taking these medications together may include an increased risk of low blood pressure, slow heart rate, and potential drug interactions. It is always best to consult with your healthcare provider before taking these medications together to ensure safety and effectiveness.
