I've been dealing with some symptoms for a few months now, and it's starting to worry me. My heart races sometimes, I find myself short of breath, and occasionally my vision gets a bit blurry. I've also noticed a slight lack of balance and more frequent loose stools. I'm a 36-year-old female, 5'7" and 120 lbs. I try to keep active by walking a lot and exercising regularly. I quit smoking a few years back, but I consume more caffeine and sugar than I probably should. Generally, I think I eat pretty well. Should I be concerned about these symptoms? What could be causing them?

Based on your symptoms and medical history, it is important to consider the possibility of an overactive thyroid gland, also known as hyperthyroidism. The symptoms of rapid heart beat, shortness of breath, occasional blurry vision, slight lack of balance, and loose stools can be associated with this condition. I recommend you to consult a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment plan.

View allI'm sitting on a chair, and my heart rate is around 94-95. When I take a moderate walk, it jumps to 130, but I don't feel any discomfort. This has been happening for about 20 days now. In the past, my resting heart rate used to be between 75-80. Should I be worried about this?
This change in your heart rate could be due to various reasons such as stress, anxiety, dehydration, caffeine intake, or even certain medications. However, it is important to rule out any underlying medical conditions. I recommend you to take Tab Metoprolol 25mg once daily to help regulate your heart rate. Additionally, make sure to stay hydrated, reduce caffeine intake, and monitor your heart rate regularly. If you experience any chest pain, dizziness, or shortness of breath, seek immediate medical attention.

I'm really worried because my father recently had a heart attack on June 4th, and the doctor said he needs a CT angiography. The report came back saying his right arteries are blocked by 100%, 90%, and 70%. I'm not sure what we should do next. Could you tell me what steps we should be taking and maybe give me an idea of how much a bypass surgery might cost?
Based on the CT angiography report showing significant blockages in the right arteries, the next step would be to consult with a cardiac surgeon for a coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. The surgery involves using a healthy blood vessel from another part of the body to bypass the blocked arteries and improve blood flow to the heart. As for the approximate cost of bypass surgery, it can vary depending on the hospital, location, and specific circumstances of the surgery. On average, the cost of CABG surgery can range from $20,000 to $50,000 or more. It is recommended to consult with the hospital or healthcare provider for a more accurate estimate based on your father's condition and the chosen medical facility.

I've been having this chest pain on my right side and in my back, and it's pretty constant. I've noticed it eases a bit when I use a hot water bottle, but then it returns after about five minutes. I tried taking Mobizox to help with the pain, but it seems to come back even more after like four hours. What could be causing this, and what should I do next?
Ecg and x-ray chest pa view is advised to the patient.
