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?

I'm experiencing some pain in my left arm and a bit of discomfort in my chest, along with some left side back pain. There's also a little bit of gas. Could you tell me if this could be something serious? There aren't any other symptoms.

Based on your symptoms, it is important to rule out any potential heart-related issues. The combination of left arm pain, chest discomfort, and back pain could be indicative of a heart problem. It is recommended to take a tablet of aspirin (e.g. Bayer Aspirin 325mg) immediately and seek medical attention promptly. Additionally, you can take an antacid for the gas relief (e.g. Tums) while waiting for medical help.

I'm a bit concerned about my mom's heart condition. She had an angina PCI a few years ago and had two stents placed in her LAD and RCA. After five years, her doctor stopped clopidogrel and now she's only on aspirin and atorvastatin. I'm just wondering, does this sound right to you? Should we be worried about taking her off clopidogrel? Would love some advice on this.

Clopidogrel and atorvastatin both do the same action that it control the lipid profile. So if she is taking aspirin and atorvastatin, i don't think there is a problem. It's perfect. No need to take both atorvastatin and clopidogrel.
