I'm really curious about something. Is it possible to have a heart stent removed without undergoing bypass surgery? I'm trying to understand if there's a way to do this less invasively. Would love to hear your thoughts!

I've been experiencing something really strange. Every time I get a cough, I faint for about 20 to 30 seconds. It started happening once a week a couple of weeks ago, but now it's happening every day. I'm really worried because I can't seem to find any doctor or treatment for it. Could you give me some advice on what I should do or where I might find help?
It's crucial to consult with a healthcare professional to determine the underlying cause of your symptoms and to receive a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.

I was wondering if an ECG could show signs of WPW syndrome. Lately, I've noticed that my heart rate sometimes speeds up, and I'm currently on Dilzem. Could you provide some guidance on this?
Yes, an ECG can show signs of Wolff-Parkinson-White (WPW) syndrome. Since your heart rate increases at times, Dilzem (Diltiazem) is a calcium channel blocker that can help manage this condition. The usual dosage for Dilzem in WPW syndrome is 120-360mg per day, taken in divided doses. It's important to follow your doctor's recommendations for the correct dosage and frequency.
