I'm experiencing some issues and I'm really worried. Whenever I masturbate during the day, my heart starts pounding really loudly afterwards. And then at night, I feel this burning sensation in my chest and it's so hard to breathe. It's okay during the day but when night comes, it feels really difficult to breathe. I just want to feel healthy and I'm scared something might be really wrong. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

I'm a bit confused about the results of my TMT test. I didn't feel any chest pain during the test, and it said negative for inducible Ischaemia. But then my doctor mentioned the test was mildly positive. Does this mean I need to consider getting an angiogram?

yes as a prognostic tool you may undergo angiogram as advised.

My dad's experiencing some angina pain, and we went to see a doctor at Sgpgi. They recommended an angiography, and it turns out there's an 80% blockage in each of his arteries. What does this mean for his health, and what should we consider doing next?

The recommended medication for managing angina pain due to blockage in the arteries is Nitroglycerin. It helps to relax and widen blood vessels, improving blood flow to the heart. Additionally, your father may also be prescribed antiplatelet medications like Aspirin to prevent blood clots, and statins like Atorvastatin to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of further blockages.
