I'm really worried because my dad's having some mild chest pain. The doctor suggested an X-ray and then mentioned a CT-guided FNAC, but we're stuck since there aren't any clinics nearby that offer this procedure. On top of that, we're not in a strong financial position. Can you guide me on what we should do next? I'm feeling pretty lost right now.

View allI've been having this strange sensation on the left side of my chest, kind of like a needle prick. I got an ECG done, and it was normal, which is a relief, but my doctor put me on Provonal Forte. I'm just wondering, could this be some kind of chest infection or maybe anxiety acting up?
The symptoms you are experiencing could be related to anxiety or nerve-related issues. Provanol forte tablet is likely prescribed to help with chest discomfort and anxiety symptoms. However, if you are still feeling needle pricking sensations in your chest, it is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can take Paracetamol for pain relief as needed.

I've been dealing with high blood pressure around 175110 and usually manage it with Amlopress AT, but lately, Ive had to take Calcigard 5mg and Lasix 40mg to try and control it. It seems to help for a bit, but then my pressure goes right back up after a few hours. What could be causing this, and is there something else I should be doing or considering? My pulse is around 63 if thats important.
. It seems like your blood pressure is not well controlled with the current medication. I would recommend discussing with your doctor about adjusting your treatment plan. In addition to your current medications, you may benefit from adding a different class of antihypertensive medication such as an ACE inhibitor or a beta-blocker. For example, you can consider adding a medication like Concor 5mg (beta-blocker) or Ramipril 5mg (ACE inhibitor) to help better control your blood pressure. It's important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.

My dad had angioplasty surgery 5 years back and has been doing fine with normal reports, but his doctor keeps adding new tablets every visit without changing the old ones. The clinic is also quite far, so we're thinking of switching doctors is it okay to make that change?
cardiology opinion is advised.
