I've been feeling some pressure and tightness in my chest after eating, and my stomach gets really bloated. Sometimes it even feels like I'm having an anxiety attack. I'm not sure what's going on. Could there be a link between these symptoms, and what might be causing this?

My dad had angioplasty surgery 5 years back and has been doing fine with normal reports, but his doctor keeps adding new tablets every visit without changing the old ones. The clinic is also quite far, so we're thinking of switching doctors is it okay to make that change?

cardiology opinion is advised.

I'm really confused about something on my chest X-ray. It mentioned "cardiovascular markings," and I'm not entirely sure what that actually indicates. Is this something serious? Should I start taking any specific meds or consider certain treatments? I'd really appreciate some advice on what steps I should take next. Thanks for shedding some light on this!

My dad's experiencing some angina pain, and we went to see a doctor at Sgpgi. They recommended an angiography, and it turns out there's an 80% blockage in each of his arteries. What does this mean for his health, and what should we consider doing next?

The recommended medication for managing angina pain due to blockage in the arteries is Nitroglycerin. It helps to relax and widen blood vessels, improving blood flow to the heart. Additionally, your father may also be prescribed antiplatelet medications like Aspirin to prevent blood clots, and statins like Atorvastatin to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of further blockages.
