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 allI've had a CT angiogram done two years ago, and it came out normal. But now I've been told I need to repeat the test because my lipid profile is high. I attached my reports from two years ago, and they were the same back then. I'm feeling really worried about this. What do you think is going on?
if your CT angiogram from 2 years ago was normal and your lipid profile is high now, it may be necessary to repeat the CT angiogram to assess for any changes in your cardiovascular health. In the meantime, you can start taking Atorvastatin 20mg once daily to help lower your cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of cardiovascular events.

I've had this chest pain for like 10 days now, and my ECG came back normal, which is good I guess? But I'm on these meds like mild TR and taking aceclofenac paracetamol tablets. Could you explain what's going on with my chest pain? Is it something I should be worried about? And is there anything else you think I should be doing?
do ECHO once if chest pain persists
