My mom's been having issues with high blood pressure, and just yesterday, she had a really bad attack. We've been giving her Eslo regularly, but lately, she's been complaining about her heart beating really fast all of a sudden. What should we do?

Your mother may be experiencing symptoms of palpitations, which can be concerning. I recommend consulting with her doctor to discuss this issue. In the meantime, you can consider adding a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol (e.g. Lopressor) to help control her fast heart rate.

View allI'm a bit worried after my father's 2D echo report came back. It mentions "IVS jerky movement trace TR LVEF 50." Does this sound normal, or should I be concerned about anything specific?
Echo report is abnormal, advised cardiac markers and angiogram for further management..Cardiologist opinion.

My cousin just got his echo report back and the doctor said everything looks normal. He didn't prescribe any medication. His BP is normal and he doesn't have any sugar issues either. Should we be worried about anything? Is there something serious we're missing? Is this totally curable?
Based on this information, there doesn't seem to be anything serious to be concerned about. It's always a good sign when test results come back normal. As there are no specific medications prescribed, it seems like there is no immediate medical treatment required. It's important to continue with regular check-ups and a healthy lifestyle to maintain good health. If any symptoms or concerns arise in the future, it's best to consult with a healthcare provider for further evaluation.

Can we avoid going through angioplasty even though there are two clots in the heart? The patient seems fine, so I'm wondering if we could just start rehab without surgery.
Angioplasty may be necessary to treat the clotting in the heart to prevent any potential complications. However, if the patient is stable and asymptomatic, a conservative approach can be considered. It is important to closely monitor the patient's condition and follow a strict medication regimen. Rehabilitation can be started under the supervision of a healthcare provider. Medications such as antiplatelets (e.g. Clopidogrel) and anticoagulants (e.g. Warfarin) may be prescribed to manage the clotting. Regular follow-up with a cardiologist is essential to assess the need for any further interventions.
