I'm really worried about what to do if a family member, like my mom or dad, ever has chest pain, starts sweating a lot, or has pain in the arm or shoulder. What if they start vomiting too? I mean, in that moment, can I give them aspirin or sorbitrate? And if so, how much should I give? Could you explain how to properly administer it? I'm a bit anxious about this and not really sure about the right steps.

View allI'm really worried about my dad. He had two angioplasties earlier this year, and his doctor mentioned there's another vein blockage that might need treatment in the future, like 1-2 years from now. But now he's having pain again, and the doctor says we need to operate right away. I'm just wondering if it's safe to delay this procedure so I can get a second opinion from another doctor. Does it sound too risky to wait a little longer?
It is important to prioritize your dad's health and follow the advice of his current doctor. To manage the pain and prevent further complications, your dad can take medications like Clopidogrel (Plavix) 75mg once daily and Aspirin 81mg once daily to prevent blood clots and reduce the risk of heart attack or stroke. However, it is crucial to consult with his doctor before making any decisions regarding postponing the angioplasty procedure.

I'm wondering if a blood pressure reading of 113 over 81 is considered normal. My diastolic seems to fluctuate between 81 and 90 and I'm noticing that my systolic always tends to stay on the lower side. Could you give me some insight into whether this is something I should be concerned about or if it's within a normal range?
Blood pressure of 11381 is considered normal. Diastolic blood pressure fluctuating between 81-90 is still within normal range. It is common for diastolic blood pressure to fluctuate slightly. As long as your systolic blood pressure remains on the lower side and within normal range, there is usually no cause for concern.

I'm experiencing chest pain after every time I have intercourse, and I'm starting to worry. I have RHD, so I'm not sure if this is normal or if it's putting extra pressure on my heart. Can you help me understand what's going on?
Having chest pain after intercourse can be concerning, especially for a patient with Rheumatic Heart Disease (RHD). It is important to rule out any serious underlying causes for the chest pain. In your case, it is possible that the physical exertion during intercourse is putting extra strain on your heart, leading to chest pain. To help alleviate the chest pain and reduce the strain on your heart, you can take Nitroglycerin sublingual tablets as needed for chest pain. The usual dosage is 0.3 to 0.6 mg sublingually every 5 minutes as necessary, up to 3 doses. It is important to consult with your healthcare provider to discuss your symptoms and determine the best course of action.
