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?

View allI've been having this chest pain on the left side whenever I take a deep breath, and it's been going on for about three months now. I got an X-ray and a CT scan with contrast done, and I've already shown the reports to a pulmonologist three times. He suggested I talk to an orthopedic specialist. I did, but all I got was some painkillers, and they haven't helped at all. Could you please advise me on what might be going on or what I should do next?
Orthopedic opinion is advised to the patient.

I'm wondering if an ECG can actually catch all heart-related problems. I just had an ECG done and it came back normal, but I'm still worried. Is it still possible that I could have some kind of heart issue even if the ECG didn't show anything?
A normal ECG result does not completely rule out all heart problems. While an ECG is a valuable tool in detecting certain heart conditions, it may not always detect all types of heart problems. It is possible to have heart issues that are not evident on an ECG. If you have concerns about your heart health, it is important to discuss them with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and appropriate management.

What could be causing my palpitations if it's not heart-related? All my tests, like the ECG, 2D echo, CBC, thyroid, and vitamin D3, came back normal. I still get palpitations randomly and also feel really tired with body aches. What might be going on?
Palpitations can be caused by various factors other than heart problems, even if your ECG, 2D echo, CBC, thyroid, and vitamin D3 levels are normal. Some possible causes of palpitations in your case could be: - Anxiety or stress - Caffeine or stimulant intake - Anemia - Dehydration - Electrolyte imbalances - Medications (such as decongestants or asthma inhalers) - Hormonal changes (such as during menstruation or menopause) To help alleviate your symptoms, you can try reducing caffeine intake, staying hydrated, managing stress through relaxation techniques, and ensuring a balanced diet. If symptoms persist, you may consider discussing with your doctor about medications like beta-blockers to help control palpitations.
