Why do heart attacks happen at night?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Researchers found that at around 6:30 a.m. the circadian system sends out an increased amount of PAI-1 cells which blocks blood clots from breaking down. The more PAI-1 cells in the blood, the higher the risk for a blood clot that leads to a heart attack

View allmy cardiologist said my ekg showed a borderline ecg when i went for bariatric surgery clearance - what does that actually mean and is it something to worry about
A "borderline ECG" means that the results are not entirely normal but also not clearly abnormal. It may reflect minor, nonspecific changes that aren’t necessarily serious. In the context of surgery clearance, your cardiologist likely didn’t find anything concerning enough to delay the procedure but may want to monitor your heart health. It’s best to follow up if you develop symptoms like chest pain or shortness of breath.

Could you help me understand the difference between ROSUVAS CV 10 and ROSUVAS CV 20? I'm wondering if it would be okay to take half a tablet of ROSUVAS CV 20 instead of a full tablet of ROSUVAS CV 10 each day?
ROSUVAS CV 10 and ROSUVAS CV 20 both contain Rosuvastatin and Clopidogrel. The difference lies in the strength of the active ingredients. ROSUVAS CV 10 contains 10mg of Rosuvastatin and 75mg of Clopidogrel, while ROSUVAS CV 20 contains 20mg of Rosuvastatin and 75mg of Clopidogrel. Taking half a tablet of ROSUVAS CV 20 (which contains 20mg of Rosuvastatin) is not equivalent to taking one tablet of ROSUVAS CV 10 (which contains 10mg of Rosuvastatin). It is important to follow the prescribed dosage as recommended by your healthcare provider. If you have any concerns about your medication regimen, please consult with your healthcare provider for personalized advice.

I sometimes experience this sharp, pricking sensation in my chest, but it only lasts for a few seconds. Other times, its like a quick, intense catch pain that doesn't last longer than about 23 seconds. I've already done all my blood tests and cardiogram, and everything came back normal. Can you help me understand what's causing this pain?
u need an ECG for further evaluation of chest pain and also cardiac biomarkers essay study is indicated.
