I've been having chest pain and got a 2D echo, ECG, blood work, and an X-ray done. The doctor said everything looks normal, but I noticed some black marks on the left side of the diaphragm in the X-ray. Could you tell me what these might be? I'm a bit concerned.

So my 76-year-old mom, who's diabetic, has been diagnosed with a triple vessel block and just had an acute anterolateral wall MI. I'm really worried and trying to figure out whether a stent or a bypass would be the better option for her. Could you help me understand the pros and cons of each? I'm kind of at a loss here and would really appreciate your guidance.
For a 76-year-old diabetic patient with triple vessel blockage and acute anterolateral wall MI, treatment options include: Stent Placement 1. Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI): Stenting can improve blood flow, but may require multiple procedures. 2. Advantages: Minimally invasive, quicker recovery. 3. Disadvantages: Higher restenosis risk, potential for stent thrombosis. Bypass Surgery (Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting - CABG) 1. Surgical option: Bypass grafts reroute blood flow around blocked arteries. 2. Advantages: Higher success rate, lower restenosis risk, suitable for complex cases. 3. Disadvantages: Invasive, longer recovery, potential for graft failure.

I'm really worried about my mom. She's been having this pain on the left side of her chest, and it spreads to her shoulder blade and down her arm. It's been really tough for her because she also feels uncomfortable when she's swallowing, and the pain gets worse when she takes a deep breath. She's not dealing with a cold, cough, or fever, but even with the meds she's taking, nothing seems to be helping. Could you please help me understand what might be going on and how we can treat it?
