I'm experiencing this weird vibration-like sensation in the upper left side of my chest that's been going on for a couple of days. Initially, I thought it was just acidity, but its been almost 45 days now. Any idea whats causing this and how I can fix it quickly?

I've been dealing with high blood pressure and I've been prescribed Cilaheart. Since starting it, I've been struggling with insomnia and muscle weakness. I'm really worried that the medication might be causing these problems. Can medications like this have such side effects? Also, could you suggest any alternatives to Cilaheart and maybe some lifestyle changes I can make to help with my blood pressure?

Hey, I'm reaching out because my dad, who's 57, is dealing with some serious mitral regurgitation and his LVEF is just 30. The doctors here have mentioned a MITRACLIP surgery as a possible solution. Could you tell me where in India we can get this surgery done? I'm really worried and just want the best care for him.

"Hi, for mitral regurgitation with low LVEF, MITRACLIP surgery is a good option. In India, you can consider getting the MITRACLIP surgery done at hospitals like Apollo Hospitals, Fortis Hospitals, or Medanta - The Medicity. These hospitals have experienced cardiac surgeons who can perform the procedure successfully. It is important to consult with the cardiologist and surgeon at the chosen hospital to discuss the procedure in detail and plan for the surgery. The dosage and specific brand of medications post-surgery will be prescribed by the treating doctor based on your father's condition."

I've been experiencing this really weird thing where I suddenly get dizzy and faint after using the bathroom. I woke up this last time with a hurt nose, and it's actually the third time it's happened over the past five years. The first two times, I had a fever, so I figured that was the cause, but this time I'm not sick. I've seen a bunch of doctors, but no one seems to figure it out. They keep asking if I have issues with my BP or if I'm feeling hot. I dont have any of these problems normally, so Im really puzzled. Could there be something else going on that were missing?

This episode of dizziness and fainting could be related to a condition called vasovagal syncope, which can be triggered by various factors such as urination. To help prevent these episodes, you can try increasing your fluid and salt intake to maintain blood pressure. Additionally, you can use medications like Fludrocortisone (brand name Florinef) at a dose of 0.1-0.2 mg per day to help increase blood volume and prevent episodes of fainting. It is important to discuss this with your doctor to see if this medication is suitable for you.
