I'm always having chest pain, and it's weird because it gets worse when I'm sitting but seems to get better with walking, exercising, or lying down. This usually kicks in after sitting for over 2 hours at my office. It's been going on for a while now. Can anyone help figure out what might be going on?

I'm really concerned about my dad. He's 55 and dealing with diabetes and high blood pressure, and he was told he needs to decide about a second open-heart surgery. The first one he had was an off-pump coronary artery bypass using a vein from his leg. He's supposed to have this new surgery by the end of the year. Can you help me understand what kind of risks he might be facing with this surgery?

Infection,bleeding ,allergic reactions and headache are some of the complications of the surgery.

My dad had an angioplasty on the 14th of last month, and now hes been dealing with a persistent cough. We've already seen our regular physician, but it hasn't improved. He's on Ramistar, Rampril, and has a reduced left ventricular function with an EF of 44. Should we be worried about this cough not getting better? Could it be related to his heart medications, or is something else going on? I'm looking for advice on what we should do next.

Ramipril can sometimes cause cough as a side effect. If it is too severe, then the medication may need to be replaced with another anti-hypertensive. It is best to consult your regular cardiologist before making any changes to your regular medication.
