My dad had a CABG surgery around three months ago, and now he's really wanting to have a drink. I'm worried and wondering if it's okay for him to have alcohol after the surgery. Can you share some advice on this?

It is generally recommended for patients who have undergone CABG (Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting) to avoid alcohol consumption, especially in the initial recovery period. Alcohol can interact with medications, affect heart function, and potentially increase the risk of complications. It is best for your father to consult with his cardiologist before consuming any alcohol.

View allSometimes my heart rate goes above 115 bpm, which is making me concerned since I know the normal range is between 60 to 100 bpm. I've been using an oximeter to check my heart rate. My baby recently passed away due to a cardiac problem and was born with a heart defect. Could this be related to my heart rate issues? Should I consider getting any tests done to check for potential issues?
A heart rate of 115bpm or higher is considered elevated. It can be caused by various factors such as stress, anxiety, caffeine intake, dehydration, or physical activity. It is important to monitor your heart rate regularly and consult a doctor if you have persistent high heart rates. Given your family history of a baby with a heart defect, it may be a good idea to consult a cardiologist for further evaluation. Tests such as an ECG, echocardiogram, or stress test may be recommended to assess your heart health and rule out any underlying conditions. It's important to address any concerns about your heart health, especially given your family history.

I'm having constant chest pain that doesn't go away with any medication I've tried, and it's only in the front. Could you please suggest something that might help?

Hey, I've been feeling really worried lately. So, I'm a 29-year-old guy and back in December, I had this scary episode where my heart was racing like crazy and I had chest pain. I rushed to the hospital, they did an ECG, and said everything looked fine. I even saw another senior cardiologist who also checked me out and didn't find anything alarming. They gave me some meds like clonozopam and betacap tr 40, and things were okay for a while. But the past few weeks, I've been getting this weird fluttering or vibrating feeling in my heart, especially in the evenings. I don't have any chest pain or other symptoms now, but I'm really stressed about it. With the lockdown, I'm having trouble seeing a doctor again. Do you think this could just be anxiety, or is there something else going on? What should I do? I've attached the ECG from that time, if that helps.
That could be due to anxiety,if your previos medicines are avaialable with you you can take those medicines and visit psychiatrist for appropriate management
