I'm really concerned because my friend just had angiography and then angioplasty three days later. Now, due to complications, another angiography and possibly angioplasty are needed just three weeks after the first. Are there any risks with having these procedures so frequently?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Frequent angiography and angioplasty procedures can carry certain risks, such as increased chances of bleeding, infection, damage to blood vessels, and allergic reactions to contrast dye. Additionally, there is a risk of developing blood clots at the site of the procedure. To help reduce these risks, your friend's healthcare provider may prescribe medications such as Aspirin and Clopidogrel to prevent blood clots, as well as medications like Atorvastatin to manage cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of further complications. It is important for your friend to follow the prescribed medication regimen and attend all follow-up appointments to monitor for any potential complications.

View allI've had this chest pain for like 10 days now, and my ECG came back normal, which is good I guess? But I'm on these meds like mild TR and taking aceclofenac paracetamol tablets. Could you explain what's going on with my chest pain? Is it something I should be worried about? And is there anything else you think I should be doing?

I've been on planep 50mg and cidmus 50mg in the morning, plus cidmus 100mg in the evening since November 2019 because my LVEF is at 38 percent. I'm worried about it and wondering how I can improve this situation. Could you offer some advice or suggestions?

What does a bpm of 106 mean on an ECG test? Should I be really worried about this? Everything else seems to be in the normal range.
A bpm of 106 in an ECG test indicates a heart rate of 106 beats per minute. This heart rate is slightly above the normal range of 60-100 beats per minute, but it may not necessarily be a big concern, especially if other parameters on the ECG are within normal range. However, it is important to monitor your heart rate and consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management if needed.
