My grandfather is 82 years old and has a 99% RCA lesion, 90% LAD, and 60% LCX lesion. He's been given clexane injections but I'm not sure if he should go for bypass surgery or if medication alone would work for him. What would be the best option given his age and condition?

Your blood pressure readings of 10766 and 10866 are considered normal, as they fall within the optimal range (less than 12080 mmHg); no immediate action is required, but maintaining a healthy lifestyle, including a balanced diet, regular exercise, stress management, and regular check-ups with your doctor, will help sustain optimal blood pressure levels.

I'm experiencing this weird needle-like pricking sensation in my right chest and arms, but it only happens at night, and Ive noticed it seems to occur when I drink alcohol. My blood pressure seems to range from 8095 to 120140 in the evening, but its normal in the morning. This has been going on for months now. I had an ECG done and the doctor said my heart seems fine, but he mentioned symptoms of high blood pressure over the past few months. Should I be worried about this, or is there something I could do to help with the symptoms?
This sensation in your right chest and arms, especially occurring at night after drinking alcohol, could be related to nerve irritation or inflammation. Given your fluctuating blood pressure readings, it is important to manage your blood pressure effectively to prevent any complications. I recommend you to take a low dose of Amlodipine (brand name: Norvasc) 5mg once daily to help control your blood pressure. Additionally, you can take Acetaminophen (brand name: Tylenol) 500mg for relief from the needle-like sensation in your chest and arms. However, it is important to limit or avoid alcohol consumption as it can exacerbate your symptoms and negatively impact your blood pressure. Please make sure to follow up with your doctor regularly to monitor your blood pressure and adjust your treatment plan as needed.

I'm really concerned about my husband who's 41 years old. He's been experiencing some pain on the left side of his chest every now and then, but when we did an ECG and an X-ray, everything came back normal. He weighs about 78 kg. Should I be worried even though the tests are normal? What else could be causing this pain?
gastritis rule out.
