My brother just went through open heart surgery last month, and now he's been battling pneumonia for two weeks. He's been admitted to the ICU due to breathing issues. They did an ECG and discovered his heart function is down to 24. I'm really worried, and I'm wondering if we could take him on an 11-hour flight to the USA to address this situation. What do you think?

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.

I'm feeling a bit concerned because I was diagnosed with a complete right bundle branch block, but never had any symptoms before. Recently, I've been experiencing insomnia due to palpitations, dizziness, and weakness. Can you help me understand what's happening to me?

I'm trying to understand what it means if a TMT result comes back positive. Does this indicate there's an issue with my heart? Should I be worried about any specific heart conditions?
If TMT is positive, it indicates that there may be a problem related to the heart. TMT stands for Treadmill Test, which is a common test used to assess how well your heart responds to stress. A positive TMT result can suggest the presence of coronary artery disease or other heart-related issues. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
