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 concerned about my recent master checkup results. The doctor mentioned I have an abnormal heart rhythm where my heart stops for 1.8 seconds. He said it's a birth defect and suggested I get a pacemaker. I've been feeling dizzy lately, and I'm wondering if that's related to my heart issue. Do you think it's a good idea to go ahead with the pacemaker? Are there any other treatments or alternatives you would recommend?

Yes, the dizziness could be related to the abnormal heart rhythm causing brief pauses in the heart's electrical activity. A pacemaker is commonly recommended for individuals with significant heart rhythm abnormalities like yours to help regulate the heart's rhythm and prevent pauses that can lead to symptoms like dizziness. Alternative treatments may include medications to help control the heart rhythm, but in cases where there are significant pauses in the heart rhythm, a pacemaker is often the most effective and safest option to prevent complications and improve quality of life. It is advisable to follow your doctor's recommendation to have a pacemaker implanted to help regulate your heart rhythm and prevent further symptoms like dizziness.

I'm really concerned about my daughter's health. She's 30 and works in IT as a software engineer. Lately, she's been experiencing a lot of laziness, and I'm worried because she always has low blood pressure, less than 10070. Is this something we should be worried about, or can low BP just vary from person to person?

Low blood pressure (less than 10070 mmHg) can be normal for some individuals and may not cause any symptoms. However, if your daughter is experiencing symptoms like dizziness, fatigue, or frequent laziness, it could be due to her low blood pressure or other underlying conditions. Its important to evaluate potential causes, such as dehydration, nutritional deficiencies, hormonal imbalances, or even the effects of a sedentary lifestyle associated with her IT job. Encouraging her to stay hydrated, maintain a balanced diet, and incorporate regular physical activity can help. If her symptoms persist or worsen, I recommend consulting with a healthcare provider to rule out any underlying conditions and provide personalized advice.
