I had a cardiac arrest back in 2007 and they found 25% blockage after an angiography at the hospital in Mumbai. Lately, for the last 15 days or so, I've been feeling weak pretty regularly. Had a Doppler and 2D echo test done in Jodhpur recently, and the doctor told me my heart is working at only 20%. I'm really concerned about this. What should I do next?

I'm really worried about my dad. He's 77 and has been having this on-and-off chest pain right in the middle. We just got his ECG done and it showed some abnormalities in the T wave. We're supposed to get an echo done tomorrow. I'm just wondering, could this be something serious?
