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've noticed my heart rate usually stays between 80 to 92. Should I be worried about this, or is it normal? Just want to know if there's any concern with my heart.
Hi, Heart rate between 60 to 100 beats per minute is considered normal. A heart rate of 80 to 92 falls within this range and is generally not a cause for concern. However, if you are experiencing any other symptoms such as chest pain, shortness of breath, dizziness, or fainting, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation.

I'm dealing with mitral stenosis and had a balloon mitral valvotomy about two years ago. I'm really anxious to know about my life expectancy now. I've attached my ECG and echo results. Could you help me understand what to expect going forward?
"Based on your history of mitral stenosis and previous balloon mitral valvuloplasty (BMV) done 2 years ago, your life expectancy can vary depending on various factors such as the severity of the stenosis, your overall health, and any other underlying medical conditions. It is important to regularly follow up with your cardiologist for monitoring and management. For mitral stenosis, medications such as diuretics, beta-blockers, and anticoagulants may be prescribed to manage symptoms and prevent complications. In some cases, surgical intervention or another BMV procedure may be recommended. Without reviewing your specific ECG and echo results, I cannot provide a precise estimate of your life expectancy. It is best to discuss this question with your cardiologist who has access to your complete medical history and test results."

Is coffee good for high blood pressure?
Research indicates that coffee may lead to short-term increases in blood pressure. However, no long-term associations with increases in blood pressure or risk of heart disease have been found in people who drink it regularly. Rather, coffee may promote heart health due to its high antioxidant content.
