I've recently had an angioplasty to clear a blockage in my main valve. It's been three days now, and I've started feeling some pain in my left shoulder after sitting for a few hours. I haven't been lifting any heavy objects or anything like that. Is this something related to my heart? Should I be worried? Please let me know what's going on.

View allI'm experiencing this pinching needle-like pain mainly in my left arm, back, left nipple, and even my left leg. It's really random and just comes and goes. Should I be worried that this might be related to a heart problem?
These symptoms could potentially be related to a heart issue, such as angina. However, it is important to consult a healthcare professional for a proper diagnosis. In the meantime, you can take Aspirin 81mg once daily to help prevent blood clots and reduce the risk of heart attack. If the symptoms persist or worsen, seek medical attention immediately.

My dad has a heart problem, and the angiography report shows his left and right arteries are about 70% blocked. I'm really worried and trying to figure out what's best for him. Should he go for angioplasty or a bypass surgery? What would you suggest?
In the case of your father with 70% blockage in both the left and right arteries, the best treatment option would be bypass surgery. Bypass surgery is recommended for patients with severe blockages in multiple arteries. It involves creating new pathways for blood to flow to the heart muscle by using a blood vessel graft. This procedure can improve blood flow to the heart and reduce the risk of a heart attack. The specific medication and dosage post-surgery will be prescribed by the treating doctor.

I'm experiencing a really high heart rate, like around 111 to 115, and I'm also dealing with dry eyes and a loss of appetite. Could these be connected to my fast heartbeat? What might be causing all this? Would love some guidance.
A high heart rate, dry eyes, and loss of appetite can be related to various medical conditions. One possible reason for your symptoms could be hyperthyroidism, which is an overactive thyroid gland. In this case, I would recommend you to consult with a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment plan. In the meantime, you can take Propranolol (Inderal) 10mg twice a day to help lower your heart rate.
