My mother was diagnosed with gall bladder stones and is scheduled for surgery, but the doctor noticed something unusual in her heart X-ray and recommended an echo. The echo results came back as 4243 at the clinic but showed 2025 when repeated at a government hospital. Why are the readings so different and what should we do next?

I'm really worried about my husband. He had a heart attack on February 6, 2017, and only one artery was opened during the angioplasty. He was on a ventilator and an IBP machine for four days. Then he had a CABG on March 9, 2017. Since then, he's been having this stiff feeling at the back of his head and constant pain there. What could be causing this, and should we be concerned?
