I've been experiencing chest pain for the past 3 months, but I don't have any other symptoms. The pain isn't severe, just mild, and it only happens when I bend my body or take a deep breath. Should I be worried about this? What could be causing it?

I'm thinking about trying EECP therapy for my dad. He had a heart attack two years ago and he's got a stent in one artery, while the other two are clogged with 90% and 80% blockages. I've heard a lot of positive things about this natural bypass therapy, and some hospitals do offer it. But I'm just not sure about the results. Is it really effective? Or would angioplasty be the better option here?

EECP therapy can be a beneficial option for your father's condition. It is a non-invasive treatment that can help improve blood flow to the heart muscle by promoting the development of collateral circulation. However, in the case of significant blockages like 90% and 80% in his arteries, angioplasty may be a more suitable option to directly address the blockages. For the blockages your father has, angioplasty with stent placement may be recommended to open up the blocked arteries and improve blood flow to the heart. This procedure can help reduce symptoms and lower the risk of future heart-related complications. I recommend discussing these treatment options with your father's cardiologist to determine the most appropriate course of action based on his individual condition and medical history.

Serratiopeptidase should be avoided with blood thinners like clopidogrel and aspirin; always consult your cardiologist first.

I'm really worried about my dad. He's 77 and has been having this on-and-off chest pain right in the middle. We just got his ECG done and it showed some abnormalities in the T wave. We're supposed to get an echo done tomorrow. I'm just wondering, could this be something serious?
