View allI've been experiencing palpitations when I'm trying to sleep, and it's kind of worrying me. I got my LDL levels checked, and they're about 173. What steps should I consider taking?
Palpitations can be concerning, especially if you have high LDL levels. To help manage your palpitations and lower your LDL levels, you can start by making lifestyle changes such as exercising regularly and following a heart-healthy diet. In addition, your doctor may prescribe you a medication like Atorvastatin (brand name Lipitor) at a dosage of 10-20 mg to help lower your LDL levels. It is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.

I'm really worried about my dad's recent angiography test results. It showed he has a 100% blockage in two arteries and 95% in a third artery, with just one vein working properly. I'm trying to understand if he should consider bypass surgery or angioplasty. Which option is generally more effective for extending lifespan?
For blockages of 100% in two arteries and 95% in the third artery, bypass surgery would be more effective in this case. Bypass surgery involves creating new pathways for blood to flow to the heart muscle, bypassing the blocked arteries. This can help improve blood flow to the heart and relieve symptoms such as chest pain. It is also known to extend lifespan and reduce the risk of future heart attacks compared to angioplasty. The patient should consult with a cardiac surgeon to discuss the best treatment option and further details regarding the bypass surgery procedure and post-operative care.

I'm feeling a bit worried because I did ECG, echo, TMT, and a CT angiography back in November 2021, and everything turned out normal back then. But now I'm dealing with chest pain again from time to time, and I've got some acidity issues too. I'm wondering, is it necessary for me to repeat those tests? If so, how long should I wait before doing them again?
In your case, since you are experiencing chest pain again along with acidity issues, it would be advisable to consult with your doctor for further evaluation. The doctor may recommend medications to manage your acidity and chest pain symptoms. For acidity, you can take antacids like Omeprazole 20mg once a day before breakfast. For chest pain, you can take Paracetamol 500mg as needed for pain relief. If the symptoms persist or worsen, a follow-up with your doctor may be necessary for a reassessment.
