I've woken up today with this weird numb feeling on the top left part of my chest right above my breast. It feels tingly when I touch it, but there's no pain. Also, I'm sweating on and off and my mid back is aching. Could this be something serious?

View allI've been feeling my heartbeat in my stomach when I'm lying down, and it's like my stomach moves with each beat. My ECG came out normal, so I'm not sure what's going on. What steps should I take next?
This sensation could be due to a condition called pulsatile tinnitus, where you perceive your heartbeat in your abdomen. Since your ECG is normal, it is less likely to be related to a heart issue. However, it is important to rule out other potential causes. I recommend you consult with a healthcare provider for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can try managing stress and anxiety, as they can sometimes exacerbate this sensation.

My dad's experiencing some angina pain, and we went to see a doctor at Sgpgi. They recommended an angiography, and it turns out there's an 80% blockage in each of his arteries. What does this mean for his health, and what should we consider doing next?
The recommended medication for managing angina pain due to blockage in the arteries is Nitroglycerin. It helps to relax and widen blood vessels, improving blood flow to the heart. Additionally, your father may also be prescribed antiplatelet medications like Aspirin to prevent blood clots, and statins like Atorvastatin to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of further blockages.

I'm really curious about something regarding a heart failure patient who has COPD, severe LV dysfunction, hypothyroidism, hypertension, and hyponatremia. Why would Montair LC be prescribed in this case? I've heard it being used for respiratory conditions, but I'm not sure how it fits into the treatment for someone with such a complex medical history. Could you help me understand?
Montair LC is given to heart failure patients with COPD, severe LV dysfunction, hypothyroidism, HTN, and hyponatremia to help manage their asthma symptoms. Montair LC is a combination medication containing Montelukast and Levocetirizine. Montelukast helps in reducing inflammation in the airways, which can be beneficial for patients with COPD and asthma. Levocetirizine is an antihistamine that can help relieve symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, and itching caused by allergies. The dosage of Montair LC can vary depending on the patient's condition, so it is important to follow the prescribed dosage by your healthcare provider.
