I'm trying to understand the results of a recent angiogram and I'd love some clarity. It mentions a right femoral arterial approach with a normal LMCA, but there's a 90% stenosis in the proximal LAD and a 50% stenosis distally in the LCX. It also says the OM has a 90% stenosis in a small vessel, and the RCA has a 40% stenosis proximally. The renal angiogram shows everything is normal for both kidneys. My biggest worry is about the critical stenosis in the LAD. What does all this mean for my heart health, and what kind of treatment or lifestyle changes should I be considering?

View allI'm feeling pretty anxious because I've had this heavy feeling in my chest since yesterday. I went for an ECG and it showed Tall T waves. Is this something I should be really worried about? I'm attaching my ECGs, and the second one was done an hour after the first. Could this possibly be hyperkalemia because I had a couple of coconut waters and eggs? Would appreciate any clarity on this.
Tall T waves in an ECG can be a sign of hyperkalemia, which is high potassium levels in the blood. It can be life-threatening if not treated promptly. To lower your potassium levels, you can take medications like Kayexalate to help remove excess potassium from your body. The usual dosage is 15-60 grams orally 1-4 times a day. Additionally, you should avoid high potassium foods like coconut water and bananas. It is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.

I'm experiencing this weird chest and left arm discomfort whenever I hear music with strong vibrations. It's been happening a lot lately, and I'm also feeling short of breath with some chest pain. I've had tests on my heart and lungs, and everything came back normal. What could be causing this?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of angina, which is chest pain or discomfort caused by reduced blood flow to your heart muscle. Since your heart and lung tests are normal, it's important to manage your symptoms. I recommend taking a low dose of aspirin (75-100mg) daily to help prevent blood clots and improve blood flow. Additionally, you can try using nitroglycerin sublingual tablets as needed for chest pain relief. Make sure to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.

I'm dealing with this ongoing issue of shortness of breath that just started up recently. It started after I began taking these medicines called Muktavati and Medhavati extra power from Patanjali for my high blood pressure. I was taking one tablet of Muktavati in the morning and one Medhavati at night for about 18 days, stopping on May 21st, 2022. Ever since I stopped, the breathing thing has been happening. What do you think could be going on here? Would really appreciate some guidance.
take pantop 40mg for 3 days
