I'm having this pain or pressure in my chest, and sometimes my heart starts beating really fast. The pain goes from the middle of my chest up to my upper throat. What could be going on?

I'm really worried about what's happening with my health. So, I had a brain stroke about 2 months ago, and my doctor recommended getting an Echo cardiogram. The test showed something called "Reduced diastolic compliance". I'm not sure what this means. Is this something serious? Should I be really concerned about it?

This means that the heart is having difficulty relaxing and filling with blood during the resting phase of the cardiac cycle. This condition can lead to symptoms such as shortness of breath, fatigue, and fluid retention. To improve diastolic compliance, the doctor may prescribe medications such as ACE inhibitors like Lisinopril at a dosage of 10-20mg daily. Additionally, Beta-blockers like Metoprolol at a dosage of 25-50mg daily may also be recommended. It is important to follow up with the doctor regularly to monitor and manage this condition.

I'm feeling some pain on the left side of my chest, and it honestly feels like it's coming from my heart. It's not excruciating, but it's definitely scary and annoying, almost like little stabbing pains. Should I be concerned that this could be a sign of a heart attack?

It's important to rule out any serious conditions like a heart attack. However, based on your description, it could also be musculoskeletal or related to anxiety. To help alleviate the pain and discomfort, you can take Acetaminophen 500mg every 4-6 hours as needed for pain relief. Additionally, if you have a history of acid reflux, you can try taking Omeprazole 20mg once daily before breakfast to see if it helps with the symptoms. Remember to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

The doctor gave him Flavedon MR, but now he's sleeping almost all day and feeling a bit dizzy. Should we keep him on this medication, or is there something else we should try?

YES..patient has to continue same medicaton.. No need to stop flavedon, mild bradycardia is normal in post angioplasty patients.For his vertigo i would recommend tab vertin 8mg thrice daily,orally after food for atleadt 2 weeks.
