I'm a bit worried about my blood pressure. Normally, it sits around 12090, but every now and then, it'll spike to about 130100, or drop to 10080. It used to be at 10070. I'm trying to find a natural solution and wondering if Ayurveda could help manage this, as I really don't want to be on medication forever. I lead a pretty active lifestyle, and I'm really careful with my diet and regular exercise. What do you think? Is there an alternative approach I could try?

View allI've been having this pinching pain in the middle of my chest, a bit towards the left, for about a year now. It doesn't happen all the time, but when it does, it's noticeable, especially if I stretch my chest or if I'm pressing something between my hands that puts pressure on my chest. I've had a bunch of ECGs done, but no other heart tests, and I've seen 23 doctors already. None of them think it's heart-related or gave me any meds. What should I do next? Who should I go to for help in Pune?

My mom's in the hospital with what's been diagnosed as an MUI heart attack. The doc's saying there's two blockages: one in the LAD that's 80% and another in the LCX at 99%. They've recommended doing angioplasty twicefirst for the LCX, then for the LAD. Is it really necessary to go through the procedure twice? Would love some advice on this.
In cases where multiple coronary arteries have significant blockages, it is not uncommon for doctors to perform angioplasty on separate occasions to address each blockage individually. This approach allows for better management of the procedure and reduces the risk of complications. It is important to follow the advice of your healthcare provider in this situation. The doctor may recommend starting with the LCX artery due to the higher percentage of blockage before proceeding to the LAD artery. The specific medications and dosages will be determined by the healthcare team based on your mother's individual condition.

I've been experiencing a pricking pain on the top left side of my chest and some slight breathing difficulties, especially when I talk. Plus, I've noticed an extra heartbeat occasionally. My GP suggested an ECG, and I'm wondering if there's anything serious going on here. About three months ago, I had a similar issue but my tests like an echo came back normal. Should I be concerned or take any further action?
It sounds like you may be experiencing palpitations and some chest discomfort. Since your ECG, VOLT, and echo results are normal, it is good news that there are no major underlying issues. To help manage your symptoms, you can try taking Metoprolol (brand name: Lopressor) 25mg twice daily to help regulate your heart rate and reduce palpitations. Additionally, you can take Ibuprofen (brand name: Advil) 400mg as needed for any chest discomfort. Make sure to follow up with your GP for further evaluation and management.
