I've been experiencing times when my breathing stops while I'm asleep, and my heart rate drops below 55, which sometimes makes me feel dizzy. I'm not very active, and my weight is normal. I'm wondering if these could be signs of a heart problem. Can you give me some advice on what might be happening?

View allI'm dealing with this strange chest pain situation on my left side. It's kind of like a sharp electric shock that lasts for about 12 seconds, then it's just gone. The spot where it happens is almost always the same, and it's been randomly showing up and disappearing for the last 10 days. Could you help me figure out what this might be?
This type of chest pain could be indicative of a condition called costochondritis, which is inflammation of the cartilage that connects a rib to the breastbone. To help alleviate the pain, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers such as ibuprofen (Advil) 400mg to 800mg every 6 hours as needed for pain relief. It is important to rest and avoid activities that worsen the pain. If the pain persists or worsens, it is recommended to follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

Hey, I was wondering at what point of heart or coronary artery blockage do doctors usually recommend angioplasty? I've been reading up on it and I'm a bit worried. Appreciate your insights on this!
ngioplasty is recommended depends not just on the percentage of blockage, but also on symptoms, overall heart health, and the location of the blockageIn patients with symptoms like chest pain or shortness of breath, a blockage of 70% or greater is usually considered significant enough to benefit from angioplasty to restore blood flow to the heart.

I'm a bit confused about the difference between Prolomet XL 50mg and Prolomet XL R 50mg5mg. I don't have high blood pressure, so which one should I be considering, if at all?
IF THE PATIENT IS NOT HAVING HYPERTENSION NO NEED TO TAKE MEDICATION .And prolomet xl R is the combination medication with both medicines,, where as prolomet xl is the single medicine..
