I'm feeling this weird heaviness in my chest, and I don't really have any other symptoms, but my heart's racing and I can actually hear it beating really fast. Could you help me figure out what's going on? I'm just really nervous about it.

I'm really worried about my dad he's just 43 and had a heart attack about a month and a half ago. They did an angioplasty and put in a stent, but now the doctor says one of his heart valves isn't working right and needs replacing. His heart is only working at 30% right now. Is it safe for him to go through a bypass surgery at this point, and if he does, how long can we expect him to live after that?

Atleast for a year any surgeries contraindicated.
