Question 1

I'm really worried about my mom. She's been having this pain on the left side of her chest, and it spreads to her shoulder blade and down her arm. It's been really tough for her because she also feels uncomfortable when she's swallowing, and the pain gets worse when she takes a deep breath. She's not dealing with a cold, cough, or fever, but even with the meds she's taking, nothing seems to be helping. Could you please help me understand what might be going on and how we can treat it?

Accepted Answer

check cervical spondylosis

Question 2

I'm really worried about my 72-year-old mom. She had an angioplasty last month and didn't have any pain after, but she's developed this really bad dry cough. She's on a bunch of meds: clopilet, ecosprin, prolomet, ivabrad, lipicure, pantocid, and piriton syrup, plus aldactone. Do you think any of these could be causing her cough, or is there something else we should be looking into? I really want to help her get some relief. What do you suggest?

Accepted Answer

That could be due to side effect of one of the medicines that your using visit your doctor for switch of the medicine and maintain healthy lifestyle

Question 3

I'm really worried about my mom's 2D Echo report that mentions Aortic Valve Sclerosis. It also states LV Diastolic Dysfunction, Mild TR, Mild PAH, and Trivial MR AR, but no Intracardiac Masses or pericardial effusion. What caught my eye was the doctor's advice for an angiogram. Is that truly necessary? What kinds of risks are we looking at if we don't go for it? Would appreciate your guidance on whether this is a standard procedure or if alternative approaches exist.

Accepted Answer

yes angiogram is advised .

I'm 23 and had some tests done recently where my ECG and ECHO came back normal, but my QRS duration was 98ms. I'm kind of worried about whether this might have any implications for my health in the future. Can you explain if this is something I should be concerned about?

QRS duration of 98ms is considered to be within normal limits for adults. It is unlikely to cause any issues in the future. No specific treatment is needed for this. Just continue to follow up with your healthcare provider for routine check-ups.
