These signs may indicate a condition known as angina which occurs when the heart muscle does not receive enough oxygen. This results in discomfort or pressure around the chest; it may also radiate down the arm, up into the neck or back. If these are the symptoms you’re experiencing, then it’s important to get medical help right away because angina could mean that there is something wrong with your heart. Treatment options for angina include medicines, and lifestyle changes such as quitting smoking, eating a healthy diet, and getting regular exercise; sometimes surgery or other procedures might be necessary too if they can help improve blood flow to the heart.

Female | 35
Low blood pressure could cause blurry vision, headache, neck pain, and slow heartbeat. Not enough blood flow to your body might be the reason. Dehydration, medicine side effects, and medical conditions may lead to this. Drink lots of water. Eat meals regularly. Don't get up too fast from sitting or lying down. If symptoms persist, visit a cardiologist.

The symptoms you described seem arduous. Shortness of breath, dizziness, discomfort in the chest region, and pain on the left side often indicate cardiac complications. In certain instances, despite normal test results, cardiovascular issues persist. The medications prescribed aim to regulate elevated blood pressure levels. However, consulting a cardiologist once more might provide valuable insights.

I was diagnosed with hypertension at age 13. I started taking Lisinopril 5mg daily with great results. Two weeks ago i noticed my resting bloodpressure is perfect (104/67-120/80) but as soon as i stand it rises to 121/80s-139/90s and distolic goes even higher the longer i stand and increased palpatations sometimes with discomfort. I do not work. Im 29 year old male. Ive avoided standing and exercise sence i noticed changes. What could this be. Thyroid bloodwork is normal.
Male | 29
You are possibly having orthostatic hypertension, which is a sharp rise in blood pressure when getting up from a sitting position. I would suggest that you see a cardiologist who can do the necessary tests to identify the underlying cause and after that offer the right treatment.

Is it possible to get any advice on a heart related issue. I will put diagnosis down. Large pseud o aneurysm left ventricle coutanid rupture.
Male | 66
A big bulging area in the heart's main pumping chamber might burst, creating problems. Squeezing chest pains, skipped heartbeats, breathing trouble; those are signs something's off. An earlier heart attack or operation sometimes causes this condition. Get urgent care from a cardiologist who'll prescribe meds or operate, preventing worse issues if it ruptures.

How to improve heart working. It's working just 30% ,so what can we do for improv our heart health with medicine like vitamins with food and which one?
Male | 62
Your heart's pumping power is low, about 30%. It makes you easily tired, short of breath, and dizzy. Eating vitamin-rich foods helps, like fruits, veggies, and whole grains. Omega-3 fish oil supplements can also boost heart health. Exercise regularly and reduce stress levels. These lifestyle changes may strengthen your heart. You can consult a cardiologist.

Why does chest start to hurt day by day at night the most ?
Female | 17
Nocturnal chest pain can be due to a number of medical problems. It can be because of heart diseases such as angina and myocardial infarction, or respiratory diseases that include asthma and COPD. Visiting a cardiologist or pulmonologist can give you a precise diagnosis and treatment.

My mother has recently been diagnosed with a heart tumor. She was told that it was not causing problems with blood flow. Surgery was not advised. She has had three bouts with edema, one was serious. She had type 2 diabetes which is well controlled. She has high blood pressure. She is the most active woman her age that I have ever known. Why shouldn’t she have surgery? It doesn’t seem like the tumor is asymptomatic at all.
Female | 83
Sometimes, doctors may decide against surgery for heart tumors if they believe the risks outweigh the benefits, especially in older patients or those with other health conditions like high blood pressure and diabetes. Her edema could be due to other factors. It is best to consult with a cardiologist who can give a detailed explanation and guide you on the best course of action.

Female | 28
I'm sorry to hear about your friend's condition. It sounds like there have been complications after the open-heart surgery, leading to blood clots. These clots can be serious, and the doctors are taking precautions to prevent brain damage. It's important to consult with the cardiologist who performed the surgery and the critical care specialist managing the case to understand the prognosis and next steps. They will be able to give you the best advice regarding her recovery and when she might be able to go home.

Male | 54
Driving may resume within 1-2 weeks if feeling well. You can take short walks, but avoid strenuous exercise initially. Pranayama's benefits await, yet start gently, listening closely. Should chest pain or dizziness arise, cease activity and rest. You can also talk to your cardiologist for advice.

I have upset stomach bloating and shortness of breath
Female | 45
Experiencing upset stomach, bloating, and shortness of breath can be caused due to gastrointestinal issues, food intolerances, or other medical conditions. Consult a good hospital where they can evaluate your condition and perform the tests required.. and recommend medications or diet changes, and evaluate if shortness of breath is related to the stomach symptoms or requires a separate assessment by a cardiologist.

Is 15 grams of propafenone dangerous?
Male | 32
Yes, ingesting 15 grams of propafenone is more than enough to turn into a dangerous medical situation. The dose of propafenone overdose has various effects including dizziness, airway difficulty, cardio palmar discomfort, and arrhythmia. Early recognition and prompt medical attention become crucial for an overdose case. I recommend having a cardiologist on board for more comprehensive evaluation and therapy guidelines.

Before you start the cardiovascular exercises, make sure that you do not have any health problems such as chest pain, dizziness, or shortness of breath. If you do, it is advisable to consult a cardiologist first. However, if you are fine, start off with a slow routine and then slowly build up the intensity.

I am HCM patient.i am 38 years old.what is best treatment and medicine for me
Managing HCM at 38 isn’t easy, but it can be done. HCM thickens the muscles of the heart, which may affect the flow of blood. You might start experiencing chest pains, shortness of breath or even fainting spells. Taking drugs like beta blockers helps to calm down your heart as well as control these signs from occurring again. In addition, staying within certain limits when being active and not engaging in strenuous activities could work in your favor too. Always keep in mind that following what the doctor says is important!

Urgent Medical Inquiry Dear Dr., I hope this message finds you well. My friend, experienced a heart attack and underwent a procedure with two stents. However, post-discharge, he faced complications, including coughing and a subsequent diagnosis of a blood clot. I seek your expert guidance on his condition and potential next steps. Your prompt assistance is highly appreciated. Best regards, Elyas
Male | 62
Your friend's coughing after heart surgery could signal fluid around the lungs. This is sometimes seen as the body responds to the procedure. Immobility post-op may have led to a blood clot forming. It's important to get medical care promptly. Contact your friend's cardiologist right away for an evaluation and proper treatment.

It is advised that you see a cardiologist or general practitioner to find the underlying issue of your discomfort.
