I'm curious about homeopathy as a treatment for blocked arteries and was wondering if it's effective? I've also noticed a burning sensation in my feet and hands and I'm scared if it's related. Could you shed some light on this and recommend what I might do?

View allI'm really concerned about my health right now. My ECG showed sinus arrhythmia, but my other tests like the 2D echo and blood work came back normal. I have some heart blocks, but I've been trying to manage them with diet control. The issue is, I feel breathless whenever I walk, even though I don't have any other symptoms. Could you give me some advice on what steps I should take next?
Sinus arrhythmia is a common condition where the heart's rhythm varies with breathing. Since your 2D echo and blood tests are normal, it's a good sign. For managing heart blocks and breathlessness, you can take a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol (25-50mg) once daily. This will help in controlling your heart rate and symptoms. Additionally, continue with your diet control and regular exercise routine. If breathlessness persists, you can use a bronchodilator like Salbutamol inhaler as needed.

I'm a bit worried because I have diabetes and this morning I felt a slight pain on the left side of my chest. I went to the hospital, and they did an ECG. The report said "Borderline," but it was unconfirmed. The doctor told me it's not a huge problem but that I need to watch my diet and keep tabs on my heart health. I'm a little confused and can't help but worry about what all this means. Could you help me understand? Ive been losing sleep over this.

My mom's been dealing with pain in her left arm and shoulder for a couple of years now. The doctors prescribed ecosprin 75mg, lipicure 20mg, and monit GTN 2.6, and she's been on these for the past two years. They also mentioned doing tests like HTN and CAD to figure out what's going on. I'm wondering what specific tests she should have and how much they might cost. Any guidance would be really helpful!
