I'm really worried about my 62-year-old diabetic relative. He's had angina for over a year, and his ECG showed some troubling signs like a Q wave with T wave inversion. The echocardiogram was apparently normal, but the treadmill test came back positive, and the coronary angiogram revealed triple vessel coronary artery disease. He's stable now, thankfully, but they recommended PCI for the LCx and RCA. I'm just wondering what all this really means and where would be the best place for him to get this treatment? I'm feeling a bit lost here.

View allI'm worried about my blood pressure and want to make sure I'm using the right type of salt. Is rock salt a good option for someone with high blood pressure? And how much salt should I really be consuming each day to stay healthy?
For people with high blood pressure, it is recommended to use iodized salt with reduced sodium content. Rock salt, also known as Himalayan pink salt, is not recommended for individuals with high blood pressure due to its high sodium content. The recommended daily intake of salt for adults is about 5 grams, which is approximately one teaspoon. It is important to monitor your salt intake to help manage high blood pressure.

I'm looking at my ECG report, and it says sinus rhythm with normal complexity, but there's a mention of nonspecific T and ST wave abnormality. Should I be concerned about this? What does it really mean for my health?

I've been dealing with some health issues for a while now and I'm getting a bit concerned. It's been nearly 80 days since I first had a fever and lost my sense of smell, although those symptoms have improved. My CBC, ESR, and CRP tests came back normal, but about two weeks after my initial symptoms started, I began experiencing chest pain. The chest pain has mostly gone away, but every now and then it returns, and I still feel this tightness and heaviness in my chest. I haven't had any shortness of breath, and my SpO2 levels are between 96 and 98 after a six-minute walk. An ECG has been done, and the cardiologist said it's normal, diagnosing the pain as muscular. I just had a chest X-ray today, and I'm curious if it's normal. Also, my left nostril sometimes gets blocked, making it difficult to breathe comfortably. Can you please help me understand when I might start feeling like myself again?
Probable diagnosis is GERD .Patient is advised tab pan d ,orally for 14 days and syrup sucralfate 10 ml thrice daily for 7 days .
