I've been experiencing this weird sensation in the middle of my chest after I do just 10 minutes of exercise. It's not really painful, but it feels like a squeezing. Do you have any idea why this might be happening? I'm a bit worried.

I recently had a heart attack and my LVEF is only 26. The angiography shows 100% blockage in my LAD and 80% in another artery. One doctor recommends CABG while another suggests ICD implantation. Is it safe to undergo surgery with such a low LVEF? I'm really confused about which option is better for my condition.

risky but sx is the only option .

I've been really worried about some medication I took a while back. In 2015, I was prescribed dexa 0.5 mg for about two months to help with weight gain. At the time, I didn't really think about the side effects, but now I'm concerned about how it might be affecting my heart. I've had tests like TMT, echo, and ECG, and they're all normal, but I'm still dealing with dyspnea and fatigue quite a bit. Could these issues be lingering side effects from the dexamethasone I took, even if my heart tests are coming out fine?

"Based on your history of taking dexamethasone 0.5 mg regularly for 2 months in 2015 and your current symptoms of dyspnea and fatigue, it is important to consider the potential long-term effects of dexamethasone on your heart. While your TMT, echo, and ECG are normal, prolonged use of dexamethasone can still have implications on cardiovascular health. To address your symptoms and concerns about potential heart side effects, I recommend consulting with a cardiologist for further evaluation and monitoring. In the meantime, you can consider medications like ACE inhibitors or beta-blockers to help manage any potential cardiac issues associated with dexamethasone use. It is important to prioritize your heart health and seek appropriate medical guidance to ensure comprehensive care tailored to your individual needs."
