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.

Is it possible to treat heart blockage just with medications and lifestyle changes without needing surgery or angioplasty I'm worried because I've heard mixed opinions and want to know if avoiding procedures is a safe option for managing it

conservative therapy fails ,angioplasty is the only resort.

I'm really worried about my mom. She's been diagnosed with sepsis cardiomyopathy and CKD stage 3. What kind of treatments should we be looking into, and what does this all mean for her, like how long she might live?

Sepsis needs to be cured with radical antibiotics,if neglected it would lead to MODS,hence visit your Physician and take appropriate management,for CKD she has to undergo Dialysis twice a week atleast.

I'm really stressed out because, for the past six months, I've been dealing with these panic attacks that make me super anxious. I'm a 28-year-old guy and generally healthy. A few days back, I saw a doctor who recommended I get an echocardiogram and some blood tests like CBC, creatinine, and RBS. When I went in for the Echo, I was really scared, and my heart was racing due to my phobia. The results came back mostly normal, except they mentioned something about TR mild with mild PAH. Should I be worried about this leading to complications? And what can I do to treat it?
