I've been having shortness of breath and recently got an Echo done, which said there was mild LVH. A couple of days ago, I noticed a little blood when I spit, and my doctor recommended I take Augmentin 625 and Montair LC for a week. I've been on them for two days now, but I noticed bright red blood when I spit again today, with no mucus color. I also have GERD and have had this issue for more than six years. Could the medication or the GERD be causing this, or should I be worried about something more serious?

I'm feeling a lot of heaviness in my chest and I'm having trouble breathing. It's like I can't take a full breath and whenever I try, it feels like it just stops and I can't hold it in for long. What could this be?

Can a heart stent be taken out without needing bypass surgery I'm a bit worried about this and want to understand if it's possible or what the options are

Once a stent is placed, it isn‚Äôt usually removed; bypass is only considered if stent fails or blockage recurs.

I've been experiencing this pain that comes and goes between my breasts, and I'm really worried it might be related to my heart. Can you help me figure out if it's something serious?

Pain in between the two breasts that comes and goes can be related to various causes, including musculoskeletal issues, gastrointestinal problems, or even heart-related issues. It is important to rule out any potential heart-related issues, especially if you have risk factors such as high blood pressure, diabetes, or a family history of heart disease. I recommend you to take an ECG test to rule out any heart-related problems. If the pain is due to heart issues, medications like Aspirin and Nitroglycerin may be prescribed.
