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!

View allI'm really worried because last night my pulse rate was 130 after dinner, and I ended up taking Metocard XL 25 before heading to the hospital. They did an ECG and just sent me back home. But today, I've been feeling the same way. What should I do? Any suggestions?
It seems like you are experiencing a high pulse rate. Metocard XL 25 is a brand name for Metoprolol, which is a beta-blocker medication. In this case, you can continue taking Metocard XL 25 as prescribed by your doctor. Additionally, you may also consider lifestyle modifications such as reducing stress, avoiding caffeine, and getting regular exercise. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm a 43-year-old guy, and I've been dealing with some chest pain, so I had an echocardiogram done. They found grade 1 diastolic dysfunction. My blood pressure's been a bit off too; usually, the systolic pressure is between 120 and 126, but the diastolic is always around 90 to 96. I've also been taking Roseday 10mg for a few months since my LDL cholesterol was slightly above the borderline. I'm really curious if I should be on any medication for my blood pressure and if I should be concerned about this diastolic dysfunction thing. Does it get worse over time?
Consider medication for high diastolic BP, especially since its consistently elevated. Continue your current medication (Roseday) for cholesterol management, but ensure your BP is addressed as well. Be proactive about lifestyle changes, such as diet, exercise, and stress management. Regularly monitor your heart function and consult your cardiologist for any necessary adjustments.

My aunt had a heart attack last month and the doctor recommended bypass surgery. I've attached her angiography report could you advise whether bypass or angioplasty would be the better option for her?
Bypass surgery may be considered as the better option for surgery in some cases where the arteries of the heart may be clogged in multiple areas or when the blockage is in the main coronary artery in the left portion of the heart.
