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?

View allI'm really worried about a 20mm ASD hole in the heart and I'm wondering if there's any way to treat it without surgery. Are there other options or treatments available to help with this condition?

I'm feeling really concerned because my sister has been diagnosed with RBBB after an ECG, and her vitamin B12 levels are only 128. I've heard about rejunex 1500 injections and was wondering if it would be okay for her to take that. Is it safe for someone with her condition?
Rejunex 1500 injection contains Methylcobalamin which is a form of Vitamin B12. It is commonly used to treat Vitamin B12 deficiency. In this case, since your sister has a low Vitamin B12 level of 128, you can give her Rejunex 1500 injection. The usual dosage for Vitamin B12 deficiency is 1000-1500 mcg injected intramuscularly once daily for 1 week, then once weekly for 4 weeks, and then once monthly. Please consult with a healthcare professional for the appropriate dosage and administration schedule for your sister's specific condition.

Can you explain how to tell the difference between left arm pain caused by cervical issues and pain that's related to heart problems? I'm experiencing this dull, minor pain in my left arm that comes and goes, but I don't have any other symptoms like chest pain or lightheadedness. Could you give me some insight on this?
This type of pain may be accompanied by neck pain or stiffness. To manage this, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen or ibuprofen. Additionally, you can apply a topical pain relief cream like Voltaren Gel on the affected area. If the pain persists, consult a doctor for further evaluation. Left arm pain due to heart issues, on the other hand, is often a symptom of a heart attack or angina. Since you mentioned no chest pain or lightheadedness, it is less likely to be related to the heart. However, if you have concerns about your heart health, you can take a low dose of aspirin (81mg) as a precaution and seek medical attention immediately if the pain worsens or is accompanied by other symptoms like chest discomfort, shortness of breath, or nausea.
