Are tablets sufficient to speed up the functioning of the heart or I should opt for some kind of treatment?
My wife aged 60 is having slow pumping of blood in the left ventricle after taking ecg, echo and angiogram etc. The functioning of the heart is 65%. As per the cardiologist advice she is taking tablets. It may kindly be advised whether the tablets will speed up the functioning of the heart of otherwise any other treatment I have to undergo. Your advice is earnestly solicited. Suggest the treatment and hospitals.

Hello, With the lack of information regarding your wife's condition, prescribed treatment and diagnosis I can only assume what her condition is and what medications has been given to her. Assuming she has low ejection fraction number and the tablets she's been provided are beta-blockers, angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs), or Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors. Low EF number is an early sign of heart failure because of reduced pumping of blood to the rest of the body; these tablets are basic treatment options to prevent it. If you want to consult a different cardiologist I will list a few of the best heart hospitals all over India - Cardiologist in India.

Female | 34
It is possible that the rapid pulse and breathlessness could be symptoms of an underlying medical condition. Consult a cardiologist to determine the cause and the appropriate treatment. Some tests like ECG or a stress test may require to determine the cause of the symptoms. After that only correct course of treatment can be started.

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.

My father diagnosed with major blocks in heart artery .....Need 2nd opinion about bypass surgery...Also Is it possible to cure by pranayam?
Hello Vishal, Bypass surgery (CABG) is the choice of treatment in case of your father. Kindly consult a cardiologist who on complete evaluation of the patient will suggest you the entire line of treatment. Yoga is good to keep a person fit but there is no documentation of pranayam curing major heart blockage. It is advised to consult a cardiologist and take a wise decision. Hope my answer helps you.

If your ECG is normal then the pain may be due to muscle strain, anxiety or acid reflux. If medicines are not giving permanent relief, then talk to a doctor again, they may suggest few tests to find the exact reason of pain.

Chronic chest pain could be a symptom of some serious underlying disease. The most prevalent cause of chest pain is muscle aches, but different cardiac and pulmonary conditions have to be eliminated. I recommend that you see a cardiologist or pulmonary doctor.

If you have a level of cholesterol that is way higher than normal, a cardiologist consultation is a must sooner rather than later. They will, therefore, be able to prescribe medications as well as recommend lifestyle changes like taking a balanced diet and exercising.

Please visit a doctor in person. This will help in better evaluation and diagnosis. Based on that, the doctor will suggest some medications etc. to manage the heart rate and CAD. Also, it is important to regularly monitor the blood work to see if the medications are working and the condition is not worsening.

Perhaps your muscle strain caused the soreness, or maybe acid reflux triggered heartburn. However, chest pain could signify heart troubles too. When you experience tightness, pressure, or pain there, relax undisturbed. Yet if symptoms worsen rapidly, see a cardiologist right away.

you should first consult with your cardiologist following bypass surgery before consuming any food. They can show you which foods to eat and how much of them is enough for a healthy heart. If you have any other questions, please turn to your cardiologist.
