Some potential risks and serious complications of angiography include: - Allergic reaction to the contrast dye used - Bleeding or hematoma at the catheter insertion site - Blood vessel damage or dissection - Blood clots - Stroke or heart attack - Kidney damage from the contrast dye The cost estimate of angiography can vary depending on the location, healthcare provider, and whether it is done on an outpatient or inpatient basis.

I'm a bit worried because my PRO BNP test came back abnormal with a value of 800. Can you tell me what steps I should take next? Is there any medication that can help lower it, or are there other treatments I should consider?
A high level of Pro BNP indicates heart failure. To decrease the Pro BNP levels, treatment usually involves medications such as ACE inhibitors like Lisinopril at a starting dose of 2.5-5 mg once daily, Beta blockers like Metoprolol at a starting dose of 25-50 mg once daily, and Diuretics like Furosemide at a starting dose of 20-40 mg once daily. Lifestyle changes such as reducing salt intake, regular exercise, and weight management are also important in managing heart failure and lowering Pro BNP levels.
