I'm experiencing these palpitations alongside some gas. Could this be related to my heart or are the palpitations just caused by the gas? I was wondering if it's necessary to get an ECG. Could you give me some guidance on this?

Palpitations and gas can be caused by various factors, including heart issues and gastrointestinal problems. To address palpitations, it is important to rule out any underlying heart conditions. I recommend you consult with a cardiologist for further evaluation and to consider an ECG to assess your heart's electrical activity. For gas relief, you can try over-the-counter medications like Simethicone (Gas-X) to help alleviate symptoms.

I'm really concerned about my dad. He had a massive cardiac attack and the doctors told us that all three of his arteries were blocked. They managed to save him by placing a stunt in one of them. I'm just wondering, what do you think would be the best way forward now? Should we consider bypass surgery, or would it be better to place stunts in the other two arteries too? It's a lot to think about, and I just want to make sure we're making the right decision for his health.

In this case, since your dad already had a stent placed in one of the blocked arteries, the most suitable course of action going further would be to assess the condition of the other two blocked arteries. If the blockages are severe and bypass surgery is deemed necessary, then bypass surgery may be recommended. However, if the blockages are suitable for stenting, then placing stents in the other two arteries may be a more suitable option. It is important to consult with your cardiologist to determine the best course of action based on your dad's individual medical condition.

I'm feeling concerned about my blood pressure and heart rate. Last year, my family doctor found my BP was as high as 183120, but my ECG and other tests like Lipid, Thyroid, KFT, LFT came back normal. I was on Vitabend T and Alprex 0.25 for about 78 days, made some changes to my diet, and my BP stayed around 12090, so I stopped the meds. But just last week, my BP shot up to 163110 with a heart rate of 124 BPM; after taking Vitabend T, it normalized again to about 11580. Now, Im experiencing pain in my left hand and my heart rate averages 100 BPM. Should I be worried about heart trouble? Sometimes I feel pain around the collar bone too, but theres no fatigue or breathing problems. What should I do?

Based on your symptoms and history of high blood pressure, it is important to consult a Cardiologist for further evaluation. The pain in your left hand and collar bone, along with an elevated heart rate, could be indicative of underlying heart issues that need to be addressed. The Cardiologist may recommend additional tests or adjustments to your current medication regimen. In the meantime, continue monitoring your blood pressure and heart rate regularly. It is important to prioritize your heart health and seek professional medical advice in this situation.
