As per my understanding you are having left arm pain post CABG, also your body becomes stiff. Whenever a patient is having Left arm pain espically with history of CAD, the first thing is to rule out cardiac pathology. Immediately visit a cardiologist. He will carefully evaluate the current condition of the patient. Differentiate between cardiac causes and non cardiac cause of left arm pain. Non cardiac causes can be treated medically; in case of cardiac causes a detailed evaluation is needed. Some diagnostic test may also be done to know the exact cause and decide on the treatment. Consult a cardiologist. Hope our answer helps you. For cardiologists, visit this page, it may help - 10 Best Cardiologist in India.

It's crucial to go to a cardiologist to see if you have heart problems. I would highly recommend that you book a cardiologist appointment for an early evaluation and devising a treatment strategy.

I am married to my second cousin. During my first pregnancy there were no complications nothing. My daughter was born with normal delivery. She was completely alright and normal baby. Completing her every milestone in time. But at 11 month of the age she got ill and the major symptoms were flu and difficulty in breathing thn she was diagnosed with MYOCARDITIS. And died after 1 week and was under treatment in AFIC (Armed Forces Institute Of Cardiology) Rawalpindi. I was pregnant at that time with my second child. My second daughter was born. She was also completely normal covering every milestone in time. She was treated in al shifa hospital throughout each and every test were clear till the 17 months of age. Thn again once in a while she suffered from same symptoms and diagnosed with MYOCARDITIS. She got treated in Al Shifa hospital Islamabad and expired at the age of 17 months.So now i need some expert advise what to do now. I am not getting any satisfactory answer from any doctor in Pakistan some are claiming it as genetics but some are arguing it can't be this because babies show no defects in any of there milestone throughout their life span. So any thing or any help regarding this is highly appreciated.

Myocarditis is a condition where the heart muscle is inflamed and can be caused by viruses, bacteria, or other infections. It is possible that there is a genetic component to this condition, and I would recommend consulting with a genetic specialist or a pediatric cardiologist. They may be able to provide more information about potential genetic causes and what steps can be taken to prevent it in future pregnancies. It is important to seek medical attention and advice from a experienced healthcare professional.

Triglycerides -208, CRP-30 VLDL CHOLESTROL -42.6 TSH-7.8 Is there any chance of heart attack

Male | 23

Given the high triglyceride and VLDL cholesterol levels together with an elevated CRP, this indicates heart disease risks. It is recommended that you see a cardiologist to assess your risk factors and discuss potential lifestyle changes or medications on lowering this chance. also for TSH u should start medicine, plz visit a doctor for complete treatment plan.

Chest pain sholder pain left side jyada rightside kam hai

Female | 28

Chest pain occurs because of issues related to the heart, lungs, muscles, bones, or even gastrointestinal system. Don't ignore severe pain or accompanying symptoms like shortness of breath or dizziness. Consult with a professional, preferably a cardiologist or general physician.. for a proper evaluation and appropriate treatment.

I have pain in my chest but x-ray and blood test, and mucus test are okay. What can happen to me?

Male | 21

Experiencing chest pain despite normal X-rays, blood tests, and mucus tests can have several possible explanations. It might be related to musculoskeletal issues, anxiety, acid reflux, or other respiratory conditions not easily detected by these initial tests. If the pain is related to heart issues, a cardiologist may be recommended for a more specialized evaluation.
