I've been having sweating and breathlessness when going up the stairs, and there's some numbness in my palm along with a light pain in my chest. I talked to a cardiologist who's pretty experienced, and after checking out my echo report, they've suggested I get an angiography. I'm really unsure about whether I should go through with it. Could you give me some advice on this? I would really appreciate a quick response.

Based on your symptoms and the recommendation of your cardiologist, undergoing angiography would be important to assess the condition of your heart vessels. This procedure can provide detailed information about any blockages or narrowing in the arteries supplying your heart. It will help in determining the best course of treatment for your condition. Please follow your cardiologist's advice and proceed with the angiography as recommended.

My body's been acting up ever since I tried using minoxidilI started feeling heart palpitations and headaches, so I had to stop. I got an ECG done, and it showed 99 bpm, which my doctor said is sinus tachycardia. To manage it, I've been taking a beta blocker called Metoprolol, 25 mg split between morning and night for a month. But now I'm dealing with side effects like dehydration, a dry mouth, and feeling nauseous with no appetite. My sleep's all messed up too, waking up at 5:30 am just dying for some water. I stopped the medication on April 2nd, but it seems like the side effects multipliedstill facing palpitations, anxiety, stress, and all those other issues. But when I talked to my cardiologist, its like he wasn't even listening, just dismissed everything I said. Honestly, I can't focus, eat, or sleep right. Plus, my standing heart rate is hitting over 110 bpm. What should I do about this?
The side effects of minoxidil would have settled down by now .Metoprolol is for the associated anxiety only and tachycardia if any.Kindly share further details
