I'm looking for some advice. My husband, who's 29 and weighs around 92 kg, has been feeling a pinching sensation in his chest and some pain in his left arm for about 45 days now. He's a non-smoker, drinks occasionally, and his parents both had heart attacks before. Our cardio doctor suggested a CT coronary angio test, which is non-invasive. About six months ago, he had episodes of increased heartbeats, anxiety, and sweating, and we did a bunch of tests like the 2D Echo Doppler, TMT, and trop T, which all came back normal in September 2018. I'm wondering if this is a good step to take to get more clarity on what's happening with him. Are there any side effects from this test we should be aware of, and is there anything specific we should do to prepare before he takes the test?

View allMy dad's 76 and a few years back he was diagnosed with triple vessel coronary artery disease and lmca disease. Three years ago, he had an angioplasty and got a stent put in for one of his major artery blocks. The cardiologist suggested we manage the two other 100% blocks with medical management instead of more procedures because of some complications. Small hitch though, post-angioplasty, his kidneys were affected and his creatine level hit 1.6. He's been maintaining it between 1.6 to 1.8 with a strict diet for almost three years now. Recently, his cardiologist changed up his meds to boost his heart function and put him on Isolazine. Now, his blood pressures gone up and one of his legs is swelling. I'm stuck wondering if its fluid retention but is it from his heart or his kidneys acting up? Should we be worried about Isolazine for his kidney health? Hes been on it for around four months. Could it be related? What's your take on this?
Isolazine is not recommended for patients with kidney issues, as it can potentially worsen kidney function and cause fluid retention, which may present as leg swelling. It is advisable to stop Isolazine and consult with the cardiologist for an alternative medication that is safer for kidney function. In the meantime, it is important to monitor his blood pressure closely and manage any fluid retention symptoms.

I'm trying to make sense of this ECG report. It's got me a bit worried. The vent rate is 64 BPM, PR interval is at 232 ms, Qrs duration reads 114 ms, and the QtQtc interval shows 407423. Should I be concerned about any of these numbers? Are there any changes I should be considering?
Based on the ECG report you provided, everything seems within normal limits. There are no serious concerns noted. The ventricular rate is 64 BPM, PR interval is 232 ms, QRS duration is 114 ms, and QTQTC interval is 407423 ms. No immediate changes in medication are required based on this ECG report.
