I've been feeling some pain in the middle of my chest, right at the top, for the last couple of months, and it seems to be getting worse every day. I've also been dealing with catarrh for a few years now. Could these be related, and should I be worried about this chest pain getting worse?

View allMy dad had a heart attack recently and the doctor suggested he needs an angiography. I'm really worried and wonder what we should expect from this procedure. Is it risky, or are there any side effects we should be aware of? How soon should he have it done, and is there anything specific we need to prepare for before the angiography?
After a heart attack, angiography is often recommended to assess the extent of blockages in the coronary arteries. This procedure can help determine the best course of treatment. Your father may be prescribed medications such as Aspirin, Clopidogrel, and Atorvastatin to prevent further complications and manage his heart health. The dosage and duration of these medications will be determined by his doctor based on his individual condition.

The echo report shows severe MS with MVA 0.7 cm2 and high gradient 23/16 mmHg along with severe PAH at 92 mmHg - is heart surgery like MVR absolutely necessary or can we still try managing with medications for now given there's normal LV function and no RWMA

I've been experiencing this strange sensation for the last two weeks where it feels like my heart is skipping a beat or just stops briefly, and then it goes back to normal. It can happen maybe 5 to 10 times throughout the day, and it's pretty random. Is this something I should be worried about?
It sounds like you may be experiencing episodes of irregular heartbeats, also known as palpitations. In this case, it is important to consult a cardiologist for further evaluation and management. However, if you are looking for over-the-counter options to help manage your symptoms, you can try taking magnesium supplements. Magnesium can help regulate your heart rhythm and reduce the frequency of palpitations. You can take magnesium supplements such as "Nature Made Magnesium 250 mg" once daily. Remember to consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new supplement regimen.
