My mom has this needle-like pain in her left hand index finger and it's moving up to her chest. It happens every 10 minutes, and it's really sharp pain both in the finger and her chest. She's also complaining about pain in her neck and legs. Could this be something serious, or should we get it checked out?

View allI've been diagnosed with triple vessel disease, and they recommended angioplasty. I'm really hoping for a less invasive approach, like EECP or chelation therapy, but I can't find any doctors willing to even discuss these alternatives. I'm feeling a bit stuck and just wondering what other options might be out there for me. Would love any advice or insights on possible treatments besides surgery.
Triple vessle disease is a red flag that your heart is readyto compromise,dont look for alternatives,follow your doctors advice

Can a 2D echo test spot blockages in the arteries? I've been told I should get one, and I'm wondering if it will actually help in detecting any issues with my heart. Just trying to figure out what exactly this test is going to show.
A 2D echo test, also known as an echocardiogram, primarily evaluates the structure and function of the heart. While it can provide valuable information about the heart's pumping function, valves, and chambers, it may not be the most effective test for detecting blockages in the arteries. To specifically assess blockages in the arteries, your healthcare provider may recommend additional tests such as a stress test, coronary angiography, or CT angiography. These tests are more specialized in detecting blockages in the arteries.
