Earlier two heart blockages were found and now two more have been detected. I'm really confused would angioplasty be better or should I consider bypass surgery this time?
With four confirmed heart blockages, a discussion with your cardiologist about both angioplasty and bypass surgery is crucial. Bypass surgery is often favored when multiple blockages are present, especially if the left main coronary artery is involved. Angioplasty might be an option for less extensive blockages or if bypass surgery isn't feasible

I'm really worried about how sudden anxiety and a spike in blood pressure after getting some shocking news could cause a heart attack. Is this something that can actually happen, and how would I know if it's a real risk for me or someone I care about?
Sudden anxiety and high blood pressure can potentially increase the risk of acute cardiac events, including cardiac arrest. It is important to manage anxiety and blood pressure to reduce this risk. In such situations, medications like Atenolol can be used to control blood pressure and anxiety. The typical dosage of Atenolol for high blood pressure is 25-100 mg per day, as prescribed by a doctor.
