Can a lead pellet near my heart be safely removed?

What would it take for me to be able to have a lead pellet removed from the lymph node so rounding the main aorta of your heart. With MRI results show ing to be a sixteenth of an inch from said aorta. The incident had happened in the summer of 1998. I'll be 40 in a couple of months. I'm sick of being afraid to breathe.

I know you are worried about the lead pellet that is close to your aorta. In such situations, only a specialist can determine the best course of action. The closeness to such a life-saving place is really indeed severe. Chest pain, breathing problems, or exhaustion are some of the symptoms to look for. Seeking medical help right away is vital for a proper assessment and the recommendation of treatment options.

Can anemia cause heart palpitations?

Male | 35

In anaemia, your heart will try pumping more blood to compensate. This causes palpitations and increases the heart rate.

I am 62 year old. I have been taking medicine for last 4-5 year. Heart pumping was set at 42% from last 3 year , but I had got heat attack 2 times and now pumping work at 30% and No blockage, now what should I will do ?

Male | 62

You should consult a cardiologist as soon as possible to determine how well your heart functions. A drop from 42% pumping to the level of 30% is considerable, and it may call for a modification in medication or other therapy. Heart health must be taken care of by the specialist to avoid further heart attacks.

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.
