I'm thinking about marrying a girl who's had heart valve surgery. She's 27 and on meds her cardiologist says she'll need forever. I'm worried about what this means for us, especially if we want to have kids. Could her medication cause any side effects or issues with pregnancy? And what should we expect for her health and our life together?

View allI had an angiography a couple of months ago, and it showed there's about a 60-70% blockage in a main artery. I've been on oral medication for it, but I'm curiousare there other ways to check how much blockage is still there or if there's been any improvement since I started the meds? Would love to get some advice.
Angiography is a common procedure used to diagnose blockages in arteries. To check the current level of blockage and monitor improvements during treatment, a follow-up angiography can be performed. This will allow the doctors to visually assess the blockage and determine if there have been any improvements with the oral medications. One commonly used oral medication for treating blockages in arteries is Atorvastatin (brand name Lipitor) at a dosage of 10-80 mg per day, depending on the severity of the condition. Regular follow-up with your healthcare provider is important to monitor your progress and adjust treatment as needed.

I'm experiencing some heaviness in my chest area and I'm having trouble breathing. I've got a headache, my heartbeat feels faster than usual, and I just can't seem to catch my breath properly. I'm really worried about what's going on. Can you help figure out what this could be?
You may be experiencing symptoms of a heart condition or respiratory issue. It is important to seek medical attention immediately. In the meantime, you can take Aspirin 325mg for possible heart-related symptoms and use an inhaler like Ventolin (albuterol) for breathing difficulties. Remember to take deep breaths and try to stay calm while waiting for medical help.
