I'm a bit worried about heart health and wanted to ask. What are some early signs I should watch out for that might suggest a heart attack? And how long do those symptoms usually last before it gets serious? Also, I've heard about angina and heart attacks, but I'm not quite sure how they're different. Could you explain that for me?

View allI'm feeling a bit unsure about this medication Prolomet R 25 that my cardiologist prescribed. They said not to worry after some tests, but I found out it's a beta blocker, and I'm concerned because I don't have any blood pressure issues. Could you please guide me on if and how I should stop taking it?
Prolomet R 25, a beta-blocker, is often prescribed for heart-related issues such as palpitations, anxiety, or to improve heart function, even if you do not have high blood pressure. If you have concerns about this medication, do not stop taking it abruptly, as this can lead to withdrawal symptoms or exacerbation of your condition. Instead, consult your cardiologist to discuss your concerns and to determine whether you need to continue the medication or if it can be gradually tapered off under medical supervision. Your doctor can provide a safe plan for discontinuing the medication if it is deemed appropriate.

My mom, who's 50, has been taking Thyronorm 50 for her thyroid. Her doctor mentioned noticing some changes in her ECG twice during her follow-ups and suggested she should get a TMT and an Echo done. Her 2D Echo looks normal with an LVEF of 65%, but her TMT came back positive for inducible ischemia at a moderate workload level. She's mentioned having shortness of breath sometimes when she's climbing stairs, but other than that, she's fine and doesn't have any chest pain or a history of high blood pressure or diabetes. What would you suggest as the next steps for her?
A 2D Echo is advised as a diagnostic procedure for heart blocks and other pathology..
