My dad had an angioplasty last month, and they put in a stent, but he's been feeling dizzy about 10 days afterward. Any idea what could be causing this? I'm really worried and not sure what to do next.

I'm a 36-year-old unmarried woman with a slim build and usually pretty active, but lately due to lockdown, Ive been sitting and working a lot. Today, I decided to do some cleaning, like mopping and sweeping, and afterwards, I started having really strong palpitations and felt restless, especially around my neck where the carotid artery is. I'm still experiencing palpitations with any physical work and feel a bit breathless because of them. I don't have diabetes or thyroid issues, but after looking it up online, Im worried it might be a heart attack. My citys still in lockdown, so I cant visit a doctor, and I'm scared something serious is going on. Can you advise on what might be happening and what I should do?
It sounds like you are experiencing palpitations and restlessness after doing physical work. These symptoms can be concerning, but it is important not to jump to conclusions like a heart attack without proper evaluation. It is possible that the increased physical activity after a period of inactivity is causing these symptoms. To help alleviate your symptoms, you can try taking a rest and lying down in a comfortable position. Make sure to stay hydrated and avoid any stimulants like caffeine. If the symptoms persist or worsen, you can take a tablet of propranolol 10mg for palpitations. However, if you continue to feel unwell or if the symptoms are severe, it is important to seek medical attention. I would recommend monitoring your symptoms closely and if they continue or worsen, please seek medical help as soon as possible

I'm experiencing this really rapid heart rate every time I'm about to sleep. I have a 10-day-old infant who wakes up for feedings at night, and when I get up suddenly, my heart races like crazy. I also feel this burning sensation and shortness of breath, almost like I'm missing a heartbeat. There's a bit of pain too. When I left the hospital, my blood pressure was high at 140100, but now it's around 13080 without any BP medication. I'm really worried if it's something serious with my heart or just palpitations. Could this be something I should be concerned about?
Based on your symptoms, it sounds like you may be experiencing palpitations due to stress and anxiety, especially with the added stress of taking care of a newborn. To help manage your symptoms, you can try taking propranolol 10mg twice daily to help with the rapid heart rate and palpitations. Additionally, you can consider taking lorazepam 0.5mg at bedtime to help with anxiety and improve sleep quality. It's important to practice relaxation techniques and ensure you are getting enough rest to support your overall heart health. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation.
