I'm scheduled to have an angiogram next week and I'm feeling a bit anxious about it. How long does it usually take to recover fully from this procedure? I'm also worried about any possible side effects or serious risks that might come with it. And after the angiogram, will I need to stay in the hospital for a long time?

I'm feeling really anxious about some things I've noticed. My recent ECG showed some non-specific T wave changes, and I'm not sure what that means. On top of that, I've been dealing with chronic pain in my left arm and I've also been experiencing tachycardia. Should I be worried about these symptoms together? Any advice or insights would be really helpful.

Non-specific T wave changes on an ECG can have various causes, including cardiac issues, electrolyte imbalances, or even be a normal variant. Given your symptoms of chronic left arm pain and tachycardia, it is important to further evaluate the underlying cause. In this case, you may benefit from a thorough cardiac evaluation and possibly a medication like Aspirin for heart protection, along with a beta-blocker like Metoprolol to help control your heart rate. Additionally, addressing any underlying issues such as high blood pressure or cholesterol levels may also be necessary. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further assessment and management.

I'm kind of confused and worried about a few things related to my health and life after my CABG surgery back on December 30, 2013. I've been on tablets like ROSUFIT 10MG and MetXL 12.5 since then and was wondering if it's alright for me to play shuttle every day? Also, I've noticed my desire for intimacy is increasing, but my partner seems a bit drained with it all, which makes me feel pretty low the next morning. Is it safe to be intimate every day? Do you have any advice on how I could make things better with my partner?

1. Can I play shuttle every day after CABG done in 2013 using ROSUFIT 10MG and met-xl 12.5? Yes, you can play shuttle every day after CABG. Just make sure to follow your doctor's advice and take your medications as prescribed, including ROSUFIT 10MG and met-xl 12.5. 2. Sex feelings are increasing day by day but my partner is fed up with me, leading to depression the next morning. What should I do? It's important to communicate openly with your partner about your feelings and concerns. Consider seeking couples therapy or counseling to address any issues in your relationship. Additionally, managing stress and practicing self-care can help improve your mental well-being. 3. Is it safe to have sex every day after CABG? What can I do to satisfy my partner? It is generally safe to have sex after CABG, but it's important to listen to your body and not exert yourself excessively. To improve intimacy with your partner, focus on communication, emotional connection, and exploring new ways to express affection and love. If you have concerns about your sexual health, consider consulting a healthcare provider for personalized advice.

I'm wondering if it's okay to take my blood pressure while I'm lying down or if I should always be in a sitting position. Does the blood pressure reading change when I'm lying down compared to when I'm sitting?

It is generally recommended to measure blood pressure while sitting, as this is the standard position for accurate readings. However, in some cases, it may be necessary to measure blood pressure while lying down, especially for patients who have difficulty sitting or standing. Blood pressure readings can vary depending on body position, with readings typically lower when lying down compared to sitting or standing.
