My dad has blockages in all three arteries and the numbers are 90 80 80. How long can he safely wait before getting surgery? I'm really worried about his condition.

I've been having this burning sensation in my left arm for the last four months. It happens even when Im just resting and not doing anything. It's accompanied by shoulder pain, mild chest pain sometimes, and other weird pains in my upper abdomen, neck, and jaw. Ive gone through a bunch of tests like ECG, Echo, 2D X-ray, and stress TMT, and they all came back normal. I've been told it's just anxiety or maybe cervical spondylosis, but Im super scared and can't shake off this feeling that its a heart problem. Do you think these symptoms could be related to some cardiac issue, or am I just overthinking?

From your description, it sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms related to anxiety and cervical spondylosis. The burning sensation in your left arm, shoulder pain, upper abdomen pain, muscle pains, neck pain, jaw pain, and mild chest pain could all be related to these conditions. Since your ECG, 2D echo, x-ray, and stress TMT results are normal, it is less likely to be related to a cardiac problem. To help with your symptoms, you can take medications like acetaminophen for pain relief and muscle relaxants for muscle pains. Additionally, you can use anti-anxiety medications like lorazepam to help with your anxiety symptoms. For cervical spondylosis, you can take medications like ibuprofen for pain and inflammation. It is important to also practice relaxation techniques, such as deep breathing exercises and mindfulness meditation, to help manage your anxiety symptoms. Physical therapy and neck exercises can also be beneficial for cervical spondylosis. Make sure to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management of your symptoms.

I'm really worried about my father. He's 65 and has been dealing with diabetes for about 7 years now. Usually, his normal blood pressure is around 11075, but today I checked and it was 17080. His pulse rate is 90 and his oxygen saturation is 98. Does this seem normal or should I be concerned about these numbers? What should I do next?

Given your symptoms, I recommend consulting an: 1. *ENT (Ear, Nose, and Throat) Specialist*: As dizziness can be related to inner ear issues, such as benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). 2. *Neurologist*: To rule out any underlying neurological conditions that might be causing your dizziness. 3. *General Physician*: If you're unsure about which specialist to consult, start with a general physician who can evaluate your overall health and refer you to a specialist if needed. Before consulting a doctor: 1. *Keep a symptom journal*: Track when the dizziness occurs, how long it lasts, and any triggers you notice. 2. *Monitor your blood pressure*: Ensure your blood pressure is within a healthy range. 3. *Stay hydrated*: Drink plenty of water throughout the day. During the consultation: 1. *Share your medical history*: Inform your doctor about your previous experience with dizziness 3 years ago. 2. *Describe your symptoms*: Provide detailed information about your dizziness, including when it occurs, how long it lasts, and any triggers you've noticed.

I'm a 30-year-old guy, and my LDL is 110 while my triglycerides are at 264. The doctor put me on this medication, Rozavel F 5, which is a statin and fenofibrate combo. I'm just wondering if it's safe to take both of these together. What should I be aware of?

Yes, it is generally safe to take a statin like Rozavel F 5 (Rosuvastatin) along with fenofibrate for lowering LDL cholesterol and triglyceride levels. The combination can be effective in managing high cholesterol levels. The usual dosage of Rozavel F 5 is 1 tablet daily. However, it is important to follow your doctor's advice and monitor for any potential side effects.
