I'm feeling a bit worried because there's this pain in my left side, near my chest. It almost feels like there's something sitting there. Should I be concerned about this?

I've been diagnosed with blockages in my LM and RCA arteries and my angiography report shows the details. I also have diabetes for the last 18 years. Should I go for angioplasty or bypass surgery? What would be the better option for my condition?

I've been feeling some movement on the left side of my chest, and I've already had an ECG and a 2D echo done. The ECG showed sinus tachycardia, probably because I was feeling anxious at that moment, along with right axis deviation and a borderline result. But the 2D echo came back normal. I'm also checking my heart rate often to see if it's palpitations, but it's normal, around 70-80. I'm not sure what's causing these movementscould it be gas or maybe something to do with nerve movements? What do you think?

It sounds like you are experiencing some discomfort in your left side chest area. Based on your ECG and 2D echo reports, it is good to know that your heart seems to be functioning normally. The sinus tachycardia with right axis deviation and borderline ECG findings may be related to your anxiety at that moment. Since your heart rate is normal (around 70-80), the movements you are feeling in your chest may not be related to palpitations. It is possible that the discomfort could be due to gas or muscle movements. To help with the discomfort, you can try taking an antacid like **Ranitidine** 150mg for gas relief. Additionally, you can also consider taking a muscle relaxant like **Cyclobenzaprine** 10mg to help with any muscle spasms that may be causing the movements in your chest. Make sure to follow the recommended dosage instructions for these medications and if the symptoms persist or worsen, it would be best to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation.

My dad's looking really tired lately, and I'm worried because he's been on Metocard XL 50 mg twice a day. His blood pressure has been ranging from 13070 to 15075. I'm just trying to understand what might be causing this. Any ideas?

It is possible that your father is experiencing facial weakness as a side effect of Metocard XL (Metoprolol) medication. This medication belongs to a class of drugs known as beta blockers, which can sometimes cause muscle weakness or fatigue as a side effect. However, it is important to note that facial weakness can also be a symptom of other underlying medical conditions. It is recommended to consult with your father's healthcare provider to discuss this symptom and explore other possible causes. In the meantime, it may be helpful to monitor his blood pressure regularly and ensure that it stays within the target range.
