I'm really concerned about my 6-month-old daughter who has a 4 mm perimembranous VSD. Is there a chance that this VSD will close on its own, or should I be worried about any complications?

View allMy dad had a heart attack on July 28th, and they found two blockages. The doctor put in one stent, but there's still another blockage left. Should we be worried about the untreated blockage, and what's usually the next step? What should we watch out for?

I've been struggling with this issue for about two years now, and I'm really hoping for some insight. I'm a 27-year-old I.T. professional and this all started with sudden bouts of dizziness and sweating. I've gone through all the usual tests, like MRI and blood work, and the only thing that came up was a low B12 level at 83. Over time, I've begun feeling detached, and my doctor mentioned it might be anxiety. The problem hasnt gone away though, and now I sometimes experience fluttering, dizziness, and vomiting. It feels like I might faint, but I never actually do. I've had TMT and ECG tests twice, and both were normal. I worry it could be some kind of arrhythmia, but during these episodes, my heart rate seems stable with no major changes. It's confusing because these episodes don't seem linked to stress and only last a few seconds. I'm really anxious about this and just looking for a professional perspective on what's happening.
It sounds like you are experiencing symptoms of panic attacks, which can be very distressing. The dizziness, sweating, fluttering sensation, vomiting, and feeling like you might pass out are all common symptoms of panic attacks. Since your heart rate remains normal during these episodes and your cardiac tests (TMT, ECG) have come back normal, it is less likely to be related to arrhythmia. One possible treatment option for your symptoms could be to take an anti-anxiety medication such as **Xanax (Alprazolam)**. The usual starting dose for adults is 0.25 mg to 0.5 mg taken three times a day. However, it is important to consult with a doctor before starting any medication. In addition to medication, therapy such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) can also be very effective in managing panic attacks. It can help you understand and cope with the triggers of your anxiety. It is important to follow up with your doctor regularly to monitor your symptoms and response to treatment. If you continue to experience these episodes despite treatment, further evaluation may be needed.

I've been waking up with a pretty bad headache and noticing that my blood pressure readings are quite high in the morning, sometimes hitting around 160100. It seems to settle down by around noon and stays normal for the rest of the day. Im currently on Espin AT and Equasite 12.5 every morning. Is this something I should be worried about? What's causing these high readings in the morning?
It seems like you are experiencing morning hypertension, which is a common issue for some individuals. To help manage your blood pressure more effectively throughout the day, you can consider taking your medications at different times. I recommend taking your Espin AT in the morning as usual, but you may benefit from taking your Equasite 12.5 in the evening instead. This can help provide more consistent blood pressure control throughout the day. Make sure to consult with your healthcare provider before making any changes to your medication regimen.
