I've been noticing that my heart starts beating really fast sometimes, especially when I'm going up the stairs, and it makes me feel pretty anxious. Could you suggest some tests to figure out what's going on?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of a heart condition. I recommend you get the following tests done to evaluate your heart health: 1. Electrocardiogram (ECG) to check the electrical activity of your heart. 2. Echocardiogram to assess the structure and function of your heart. 3. Stress test to evaluate how your heart responds to physical activity. 4. Holter monitor to record your heart's activity over a period of time. 5. Blood tests to check for any abnormalities in your heart enzymes or hormones. These tests will help determine the cause of your symptoms and guide further treatment.

My mom had an angioplasty last month, and she's been on medication since. We've been wondering about stopping Daxid 50 because she's feeling better, but we're worried about any possible side effects from stopping it suddenly and if it's a habit-forming medication. Could you provide some guidance?
It is important not to stop Daxid 50 (Sertraline) suddenly without consulting the doctor. Abrupt discontinuation of this medication can lead to withdrawal symptoms such as dizziness, nausea, headache, fatigue, and irritability. It is recommended to gradually taper off the dose under the guidance of a healthcare professional to minimize the risk of withdrawal effects. So, please consult your mother's doctor before making any changes to her medication regimen.

I'm really worried because my father has an LVEF of 35% as per his 2D echo report. I'm trying to figure out what kind of treatment he might need. Should we be considering an angiography? He hasn't had a heart attack and doesn't feel any chest pain. I did some reading and think maybe it's arrhythmia because about three years ago, he nearly fainted while cycling due to stress. Since then, he's been on medication for hypertension. Could you tell me what steps we should take next?
Since the patients LVEF (left ventricular ejection fraction) is 35.. indicates that he is having severe heart damage .. Some of the causes uncontrolled hypertension , heart muscle diseasesex cardiomyopathy, heart attack and heart valve issues..Angiography is needed since echo report reveals severe heart dysfunction.Treatment invoves ACE inhibitors ,calcium channel blockers and beta blockers..
