I've been having this weird pain, like in my heart and behind it, and it's been slowly moving to my shoulder. Now my mouth is super dry and I'm even feeling some pain near the top part of my left arm, right above my heart. What could this mean? Should I be worried about these symptoms?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of a heart attack. It is important to seek immediate medical attention. In the meantime, you can take a tablet of aspirin (325mg) to help thin the blood and reduce the risk of further complications. Call emergency services or go to the nearest hospital as soon as possible for proper evaluation and treatment.

I'm having some muscle pain when I stretch, especially along my chest rib and it even feels like it's coming from the back. I got an ECG and echo done, and they came back normal, but I still feel this discomfort on the upper left side of my chest. I'm getting a bit scared, especially when I sometimes have shortness of breath. Could this be costochondritis or something to do with my lungs or heart?

I've recently switched to Telma 40 from Inzit 4 mg just a few days ago, and while my blood pressure was normal initially, today it shot up to 135 over 105. Plus, I'm experiencing this tingling sensation in my hands and feet. I'm wondering, should I give it more time for my body to adjust to Telma? Will these side effects eventually go away, or would it be better to revert to Inzit, even though it gave me quite a few side effects too? What do you think I should do?

continue the same medications, all medications to be continued.. cough is the side effect nothing to worry..

My dad's angiogram showed a 95% block in his LAD, but the SPECT test said only 25-30% of his heart muscle is viable. The PET CT later showed 60% hibernating myocardium that's still viable. Should we go for revascularization, and if so, would a stent or bypass be better? What are the risks, or can we just stick to meds since he's stable right now?

Medicine is very important before and after procedure but it's not enough in this case Lucky no pain gives you time but few of left myocardial muscle will die if we don't give blood to it so sitting on it is not a good idea Than should not have done all scans because now they are telling you to act upon Single block easily removed by stent takes ten minutes and. 20 years results comparable to bypass . I would get myself cut for no reason Bypass is optional if stent can't be done or too many blocks
