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 my brother. He's been having some chest discomfort and mild pain that sometimes happens on the left side and other times in the center. He gets really nervous, and his heart rate spikes to around 90-98 bpm when this happens, but when he's more relaxed, it goes back down to about 68-72 bpm. He runs on the treadmill for 20 to 30 minutes at least five days a week and doesn't feel any discomfort during that time. Although he has an acidity and GERD problem, he's finished his course of medication and isn't taking any other tablets. His sugar and blood pressure are normal, and chest X-rays came back fine, with an orthopaedic saying it's nothing serious and just suggesting vitamins. He also feels pain at certain points when the chest is pressed. With all these symptoms, I'm wondering if it could be his heart, acidity, muscular, or maybe even a nerve issue. Do you think an angiography would be necessary given his normal reports so far?
Since all the reports are normal ,advised a psychiatric opinion for diagnosis of anxiety and other conditions..

I've noticed lately that I can actually see and feel my pulse in my stomach. I read online that it's normal to feel it a bit, but I can even see it through an oversized shirt when I'm sitting. Is this something I should be worried about?
The sensation of needle poking in your back can be unsettling. _Possible Causes_ 1. _Muscle spasms_: Temporary muscle contractions can cause a poking or pricking sensation. 2. _Nerve stimulation_: Mild nerve stimulation or irritation can cause a needle-like sensation. 3. _Poor posture_: Slouching or poor posture can put pressure on nerves or muscles, leading to unusual sensations. 4. _Anxiety or stress_: Tension and stress can manifest physically, causing unusual sensations. _No Need for Immediate Concern_ Unless you experience: - Severe pain - Numbness or tingling - Weakness or paralysis - Fever or chills - Recent trauma or injury

I'm dealing with heart issues and also have diabetes. Can I safely take Ramitorva capsules along with my current medication, Cetanil 10mg?
Yes, you can take Ramitorva capsules (which contain Ramipril and Atorvastatin) along with Cetanil 10mg. Ramitorva helps in controlling blood pressure and cholesterol levels, while Cetanil (Cetirizine) is an antihistamine used for allergies. Just make sure to follow the prescribed dosage for each medication.
