I've been having this strange feeling in the middle of my chest, right about my breasts, for a couple of days now. It's hard to put into words but it feels kind of tight and heavy, and sometimes it even hurts when I breathe. I'm starting to get worried. Do you have any idea what might be causing this?

The symptoms you're describing, such as a tight and heavy feeling in the middle of your chest, discomfort when breathing, and difficulty describing the sensation, could be related to various conditions, including anxiety, stress, or even a panic attack; however, it's essential to consult a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation, especially if the symptoms persist or worsen, to rule out any underlying cardiac or respiratory issues.

View allI'm worried because about a month ago he got dizzy during the night and fell when he got up to use the washroom. Afterward, he felt sweaty but didn't have any chest pain. The next day, his blood pressure was really high at 180110 and his sugar levels were up too. The doctor mentioned RWMA but everything else looked good, and they're suggesting an angiography. Is that really necessary, or are there other options we could consider? He's never had issues like this before, and it all started a month ago when he began these medications: Zilarta 40, Metsmall 1000, Rosurica A 75, and Synx 500. What do you think?
The symptoms of dizziness, sweating, high blood pressure (180110), and elevated sugar levels, along with the doctor's recommendation for angiography, indicate a need for further evaluation of the cardiovascular system. Angiography is a common procedure used to visualize the blood vessels and identify any blockages or abnormalities in the heart. Given the patient's symptoms and test results, angiography may be necessary to assess the extent of any potential heart-related issues, such as coronary artery disease. It is important to follow the doctor's recommendation for further evaluation and treatment to ensure the best possible outcome for the patient's health.

My dad's treadmill test results came back with a positive result, and the doctor mentioned he might need an angiography. The TMT report shows an ST depression of 1.5 to 2 mm. I'm really concerned about what this all means. Is this depression considered mild, or does it indicate a high possibility of blockage?
The ST depression of 1.5 to 2 mm on the TMT report indicates a moderate level of ischemia, suggesting a significant possibility of blockage in the coronary arteries. It is important to follow up with the angiography as recommended by the doctor to further evaluate the extent of blockage and determine the appropriate treatment. In the meantime, medications like Aspirin 75mg and Clopidogrel 75mg can be prescribed to reduce the risk of clot formation.
