View allI'm worried because about a month ago he got dizzy during the night and fell when he got up to use the washroom. Afterward, he felt sweaty but didn't have any chest pain. The next day, his blood pressure was really high at 180110 and his sugar levels were up too. The doctor mentioned RWMA but everything else looked good, and they're suggesting an angiography. Is that really necessary, or are there other options we could consider? He's never had issues like this before, and it all started a month ago when he began these medications: Zilarta 40, Metsmall 1000, Rosurica A 75, and Synx 500. What do you think?
The symptoms of dizziness, sweating, high blood pressure (180110), and elevated sugar levels, along with the doctor's recommendation for angiography, indicate a need for further evaluation of the cardiovascular system. Angiography is a common procedure used to visualize the blood vessels and identify any blockages or abnormalities in the heart. Given the patient's symptoms and test results, angiography may be necessary to assess the extent of any potential heart-related issues, such as coronary artery disease. It is important to follow the doctor's recommendation for further evaluation and treatment to ensure the best possible outcome for the patient's health.

I'm really concerned about my mom. She's got diabetes and high BP, and her recent echocardiography test had some results that are making me anxious. Her exercise duration was 9.51 minutes, and her max heart rate hit 152 bpm, which is 88% of the target heart rate of 172 bpm. Her max BP was 16680 mmHg, and she reached a max workload of 11.14 METS. The stress test came back positive for RMI. The doctors are suggesting an angiography test. I'm really worried. Is everything okay, or should I be more concerned?
Based on the results of the stress test showing a positive for reversible myocardial ischemia (RMI) and the recommendation for an angiography test, it indicates that there may be reduced blood flow to the heart muscle during physical activity. This could be a sign of underlying coronary artery disease. To address this issue, your mother may need to undergo angiography to further evaluate the blood flow in her coronary arteries. Depending on the findings of the angiography, the doctors will be able to determine the best course of treatment, which may include medications such as aspirin, statins, and beta-blockers to manage her condition and reduce the risk of complications. It is important to follow the advice of the medical professionals and proceed with the recommended tests and treatments to ensure the best possible outcome for your mother's heart health.

I'm really worried about my 72-year-old mom. She had an angioplasty last month and didn't have any pain after, but she's developed this really bad dry cough. She's on a bunch of meds: clopilet, ecosprin, prolomet, ivabrad, lipicure, pantocid, and piriton syrup, plus aldactone. Do you think any of these could be causing her cough, or is there something else we should be looking into? I really want to help her get some relief. What do you suggest?
