Question 1

I'm really concerned because my dad had an angioplasty a few days ago, and they put in a stent. Since then, he's been having a really bad dry cough at night. The doctor gave us some medicine, but it doesnt seem to be making any difference. I'm worried this might affect his stent or his heart. Could this cough be connected to the procedure or the medication? What should we do next?

Accepted Answer

There are many possible explanations
What drugs is the patient currently on.  An ACE inhibitor can cause dry cough
Also what about his heart function sometimes CHF can also cause cough  consult cardiologist

Question 2

I've been having these sudden chills or a cold feeling in my chest while I'm asleep, and it's been happening on and off, like a couple of times a week for the last few months. I already saw a cardiologist and did some tests to make sure it's not heart disease because I'm a 35-year-old guy who was recently told I have hypertension. Can someone help me figure out what might be causing this?

Accepted Answer

it might be due to stress. start doing exercises, avoid stress

Question 3

I've been having this weird feeling where my heart skips a beat, and it's making me uneasy. I recently saw a cardiologist, and he checked my echo test report and said everything looked fine. The sensation goes away when I sleep and feels okay in the morning, but it suddenly starts again when I'm lying down. Could you help me figure out what's going on or what I should do about it?

Accepted Answer

mostly no need to fear since echo is normal consult psychiatist if it stil persists

get it checked again with your doctor
