My grandfather, who's around 75, has been experiencing some discomfort in the upper left side of his chest just above his heart. He thinks it's probably related to acidity. The pain started just a few hours ago, and he's not on any regular medication. Should we be worried about this being something more serious? What would you recommend we do next?

View allI'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've been prescribed Telma 20 for my blood pressure, and I'm wondering if that's the lowest dose available? Are there any other medications with a lower dosage than Telma 20? I'm also curious about how effective it is and if there are any side effects I should be aware of. Could you help me understand this better?
Telma 20 (Telmisartan) is a common blood pressure medication, and while there are lower doses available, Telma 20 is generally considered effective for managing high blood pressure. It works by relaxing blood vessels. Side effects may include dizziness, headaches, or gastrointestinal issues, though many people tolerate it well. Always consult your doctor for personalized advice.

My sister has been feeling sick and weak for months, with chest pain and nausea. It got worse yesterday, so we took her to the hospital. They did an ECG, echo, and chest X-ray. Her echo report shows she has grade 1 diastolic dysfunction. I read this is related to heart failure, but the doctor discharged her, saying everything's fine. Is there something more we should know? Could the doctor be keeping something from us?
Thats unusual at her age but it is reversible,ask her to have a healthy life style good foofd and adequate rest,follow your doctors advice
