My dad was in the hospital, had an angiography, and they put a stent in his heart. Ever since, his heart rate's been all over the place, and he's been vomiting blood after eating or drinking. What's going on? Is this normal after a procedure like this, or should we be really concerned?

My father had angioplasty last December but still has a mild blockage. The doctor said they'll deal with it later and he's on meds now but has constant coughing. Will the meds clear the blockage or will he need another surgery? If surgery is needed how soon should it be done? He's reluctant to go back to the hospital and I'm worried about his condition

I've been having this brief but really intense pain right in the middle of my chest, and it only lasts for a second. It kind of feels like something's bursting in there, and it happens when I'm just resting. It's pretty scary and I'm not sure what I should do. Any thoughts?

It sounds like you may be experiencing a condition known as angina, which is chest pain or discomfort caused by reduced blood flow to your heart muscle. It is important to seek medical attention immediately to rule out any serious underlying heart conditions. I recommend taking a low dose of aspirin (75-150mg) immediately, as it can help reduce the risk of heart attack. Additionally, you should take a sublingual nitroglycerin tablet to help relieve the chest pain. It is important to rest and avoid any strenuous activity until you can see a healthcare professional for further evaluation and treatment.
