I'm really concerned about my dad's recent medical tests. His ECG showed something about an aVF T Wave abnormality, but then he got a 2D echo, and it came back normal. I'm just trying to understand why one test would show something abnormal and the other wouldn't. Could this mean something serious?

I'm really worried about my dad. He had two angioplasties earlier this year, and his doctor mentioned there's another vein blockage that might need treatment in the future, like 1-2 years from now. But now he's having pain again, and the doctor says we need to operate right away. I'm just wondering if it's safe to delay this procedure so I can get a second opinion from another doctor. Does it sound too risky to wait a little longer?
It is important to prioritize your dad's health and follow the advice of his current doctor. To manage the pain and prevent further complications, your dad can take medications like Clopidogrel (Plavix) 75mg once daily and Aspirin 81mg once daily to prevent blood clots and reduce the risk of heart attack or stroke. However, it is crucial to consult with his doctor before making any decisions regarding postponing the angioplasty procedure.
