I've been noticing that my heart starts beating really fast sometimes, especially when I'm going up the stairs, and it makes me feel pretty anxious. Could you suggest some tests to figure out what's going on?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of a heart condition. I recommend you get the following tests done to evaluate your heart health: 1. Electrocardiogram (ECG) to check the electrical activity of your heart. 2. Echocardiogram to assess the structure and function of your heart. 3. Stress test to evaluate how your heart responds to physical activity. 4. Holter monitor to record your heart's activity over a period of time. 5. Blood tests to check for any abnormalities in your heart enzymes or hormones. These tests will help determine the cause of your symptoms and guide further treatment.

View allI'm really worried about my dad. He had angioplasty done on March 1st, but he's still gasping and not feeling well. We're consulting with Dr. Shirish MS Hiremath, but it doesn't seem like there's any improvement. I'm not sure what to do next. Any advice on how to help him feel better?
t's important to address his symptoms of gasping and feeling unwell. In this case, considering his recent angioplasty, it's important to ensure he is not experiencing any complications related to the procedure. One possible cause of his symptoms could be related to heart function or fluid buildup in the lungs. It's important to follow up with his current consultant, Dr. Shirish MS Hiremath, for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, medications like Furosemide (Lasix) can help with fluid retention and shortness of breath. The usual starting dose for Furosemide is 20-80 mg per day, but the actual dose will depend on his specific condition and should be determined by his healthcare provider. Additionally, medications like Ramipril (Altace) can help improve heart function post-angioplasty. The usual starting dose for Ramipril is 2.5-5 mg once a day, but again, the dose may vary based on his individual needs. It's important for your dad to continue following up with his healthcare provider for proper evaluation and management of his symptoms.
