Ive been dealing with this dizziness, nausea, and sometimes even fainting for about 23 days. I found out that my blood pressure is hanging around 95. Ive been trying to fix it with ORS and even started munching on raisins, but the dizziness still hangs around. Im totally confused about what I should be eating or doing to make this better. Any idea why this is happening or what else I can try? I really cant stand feeling like this all the time.

View allI've been experiencing a constant pain in my chest and the surrounding area. It happens about twice a week or sometimes just once a month. What could be causing this, and should I be concerned about it?
The symptoms you are describing could be related to acid reflux or heartburn. I recommend trying over-the-counter antacids like Tums or Maalox for relief. You can take them as directed on the package insert. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is important to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

I'm really concerned about my mother. She had four stents put in her heart last week, around the RCA and PLVLADRI areas, and seemed to be doing okay after the angioplasty. But then she started having atrial fibrillation, and the doctor gave her nordam and an amiodarone injection, which helped for a couple of days. But after we got home, she's been feeling dizzy and seeing black spots. Now she's on amiodarone 200 mg tablets twice a day and some anti-anxiety meds, but her heart rate is still 150 bpm. Is this normal? How common is it to have arrhythmia like this after angioplasty, and how long might it last? I'm worried if this is our new normal, and if there's a chance that atrial fibrillation after angioplasty comes with any risks?
The treatment your mother is receiving is appropriate for atrial fibrillation post-angioplasty. Amiodarone 200mg tablet twice a day is commonly used to control heart rhythm. In addition to that, anti-anxiety medication can help manage symptoms related to anxiety and dizziness. A heart rate of 150 bpm is considered high, and the medications prescribed aim to bring it back to a normal range. Atrial fibrillation can occur after angioplasty, and it is not uncommon. The risk associated with atrial fibrillation post-angioplasty includes an increased risk of stroke and other cardiovascular complications. It is essential to monitor and manage atrial fibrillation to reduce these risks. The duration of atrial fibrillation can vary from person to person. In some cases, it may resolve on its own, while in others, long-term management may be required. Regular follow-up with the doctor is crucial to monitor the heart rhythm and adjust treatment as needed. Overall, the treatment your mother is receiving is appropriate for atrial fibrillation post-angioplasty. It is essential to continue following up with her doctor for further evaluation and management.
