I've been having this really hard time breathing and there's this weird feeling in my chest where my heart is. Sometimes, it feels like I'm about to take my last breath, and it's really scary. I have no clue what's causing all this. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

My mother-in-law had a stent procedure about 10 days ago, and she's been experiencing fever and chills on and off. Is this something to be concerned about?

Fever and chills after a stent procedure could be a sign of infection. It is important to monitor her closely and contact her healthcare provider immediately. She may need antibiotics such as Amoxicillin 500mg to treat the infection. The dosage would typically be 500mg three times a day for 7-10 days.

I've been dealing with a heavy feeling in my chest and some chest pain for the past four months. The pain often starts on the center left side but sometimes shifts to the center right. Ive tried Gelusil a few times, but it hasnt really helped. I do pranayam and take a short walk every day. What could be causing this? What do you think I should do, and are there any specific tests you recommend?

gastritis , take pantip 40mg for 3 days

I've noticed some changes in my recent lab results, and I'm a bit worried. My triglycerides have gone up from 374 in December to 470 mgdl now. My HDL improved from 31 to 42 mgdl, but my LDL dropped from 153 to 78 mgdl and my VLDL jumped from 34 to 94 mgdl. I haven't taken any medicine, just changed my diet and stopped eating out. Should I see a cardiologist or just a regular physician?

You should first cut down on oils, butter and fried foods. Daily brisk walk for at least 30mins
