I'm really concerned about something called "poor R wave progression" in V2, V3, and V4 mentioned in my recent medical test results. I'm not entirely sure what it means. Could it be serious? Should I be taking any special precautions because of it? I've got the reports ready if you'd like to take a look.

I'm really worried about my 67-year-old dad. He had an angioplasty just five days ago and now he's running a fever. The doctor gave him Ceftum 500 and he's already taken two tablets, but the fever keeps coming back. Plus, he had constipation for a couple of days, so we tried giving him Looz syrup, and now he's got loose motions. What should we do?

I'm really concerned about my husband's health lately. He's been experiencing sharp chest pain in the middle of his chest whenever he does cardio, but it stops as soon as he takes a break. This all started after he slept in a wrong position for about an hour. We're a bit unsure whether to consult a cardiologist or a pulmonologist. Could you provide some guidance on what might be causing this issue and which specialist we should reach out to?
