My dad had an angioplasty last month, and they put in a stent, but he's been feeling dizzy about 10 days afterward. Any idea what could be causing this? I'm really worried and not sure what to do next.

I had bypass surgery 7 years ago but now I'm having chest pain again could it be related to my past surgery or something new happening? What should I do about it?

Chest pain after bypass surgery, even years later, can be a cause for concern and warrants medical evaluation. It could be related to the surgery, such as graft narrowing, or due to new heart issues. Don't ignore the pain; consult your doctor immediately to determine the cause and appropriate treatment.

I recently got my 2D Echo test results, and I'm trying to make sense of them. It mentioned things like mild thickening of the mitral valve, mild MR, mild concentric LVH, and that the chambers are normal with good LVRV function. There's also a mention of "No LV RWMA." I'm really wondering if these findings suggest a major issue with my heart or if it's more of a minor concern. I'm feeling a bit worried and would love some clarity on what this all means for my heart health.

MR treatment -diuretics,mital valve replacemet and repair .and blood thinners.like aspirin,brillinta,clopidogel and enoxaparin ,eliquis etc....
