My sister's been dealing with some pain on her left side, like under her armpit and shoulder, for a month. She had an ECG done back then, and it seemed normal. But now, she just got another ECG and it said "borderline abnormal." Should we think about doing another one or maybe see a cardiologist? What do you suggest?

View allI've been prescribed two different medications, amiodarone and Carloc, and I'm a bit confused. Could you explain how they differ and whether they have similar effects? I'm really curious if they do the same thing or work differently.

I'm really worried about my mother-in-law. She's 65 and her blood pressure's at 18290. She's had a light headache and even vomited once. I'm wondering if these could be signs of a minor heart attack or if it's just the high blood pressure causing these issues. She's been taking Telma 20 for the high blood pressure and Vertigon D for vomiting. Could you help me understand what's going on?

I had an angiography a couple of months ago, and it showed there's about a 60-70% blockage in a main artery. I've been on oral medication for it, but I'm curiousare there other ways to check how much blockage is still there or if there's been any improvement since I started the meds? Would love to get some advice.
Angiography is a common procedure used to diagnose blockages in arteries. To check the current level of blockage and monitor improvements during treatment, a follow-up angiography can be performed. This will allow the doctors to visually assess the blockage and determine if there have been any improvements with the oral medications. One commonly used oral medication for treating blockages in arteries is Atorvastatin (brand name Lipitor) at a dosage of 10-80 mg per day, depending on the severity of the condition. Regular follow-up with your healthcare provider is important to monitor your progress and adjust treatment as needed.
