I'm a bit concerned about my recent test results and was hoping you could help clarify. I did a 2D echo test, but I'm not sure what counts as normal results for that. Also, I ran for 12 minutes on a stress test machine and I'm wondering what the normal results should look like for that. Can you explain what these tests mean and what I should be looking out for?

I'm really worried because my dad had a heart attack yesterday. After he got an injection, he seemed better, but today, we went to another hospital for an angiogram. They found two blockages that are over 80% and now theyre saying he needs angioplasty. I'm really wondering, what happens if we dont go through with the angioplasty? Are there other options we could consider? And is there any way we can try to clear the blockages naturally from home?
If the blockages in the coronary arteries are more than 80%, it is crucial to address them to prevent further complications such as another heart attack or even death. If angioplasty is not performed, the blockages can lead to reduced blood flow to the heart muscle, causing chest pain (angina), shortness of breath, and in severe cases, a heart attack. The main alternative to angioplasty for severe blockages is coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery, where a healthy blood vessel is used to bypass the blocked artery. However, the decision between angioplasty and CABG depends on various factors and should be discussed with the treating cardiologist. As for natural ways to remove blockages at home, it is important to note that while lifestyle changes such as a healthy diet, regular exercise, and not smoking can help prevent further blockages, they may not remove existing severe blockages. It is always best to follow the medical advice of your healthcare provider for the most appropriate treatment in this situation.

I'm experiencing some chest tightness and pain, and I'm not sure if it's due to an allergy or something else. I've also noticed some swelling in my face and a persistent cold feeling. It's as if my chest feels bigger and there's some issue with my stomach too. Could this be related to a chest problem, or could it be something else entirely that's causing these symptoms? What do you think might be going on?
