My mom has had diabetes for 10 years and has been experiencing chest pain while walking for the last 3 months. We just got her angiography report, and the doctor suggested bypass surgery right away. Does she really need the surgery based on the findings?
It's crucial to understand that while your mother's symptoms and diabetes history are concerning, a definitive answer to whether bypass surgery is necessary requires a detailed review of the angiogram findings and a discussion with her doctor. Bypass surgery isn't always the first or best option, and other treatment options may be available.

I've been feeling some heaviness in my chest, not so much pain but more like there's something pressed against it. It's also affecting my sleep. My left shoulder and fingers feel a bit numb too, but it's more discomfort than pain. I used to smoke occasionally, like one or two cigarettes every few months, and I drink less than three days a month. All these chest discomforts have been around for about two years now. I saw a doctor back then and they said everything was fine, but it got worse with numbness and lightheadedness, and they said I had spondylosis. I've also had a shoulder injury since 2009, which I didn't really take care of. I'm trying to figure out if this is heart-related, gastric problems, or something due to my shoulder injury. It's really starting to affect me a lot. What could be causing these issues?
