I've been having some pain in my left arm and jaw, along with a toothache and feeling weak, but there's no chest pain. Could these be signs of a heart attack? I'm kind of worried and would like to understand what this might mean.

View allMy dad had an angioplasty on the 14th of last month, and now hes been dealing with a persistent cough. We've already seen our regular physician, but it hasn't improved. He's on Ramistar, Rampril, and has a reduced left ventricular function with an EF of 44. Should we be worried about this cough not getting better? Could it be related to his heart medications, or is something else going on? I'm looking for advice on what we should do next.
Ramipril can sometimes cause cough as a side effect. If it is too severe, then the medication may need to be replaced with another anti-hypertensive. It is best to consult your regular cardiologist before making any changes to your regular medication.

Do change medications only when indicated and advised by a doctor. Each medication is given for a particular patient after assessing multiple factors.
