Asked for male, 39 years old from Trivandrum

My father had a bypass surgery one year before. Yesterday he experienced chest discomfort and tiredness and went to a nearby hospital. Ecg came to be normal but heart rate was 49. Is there anything to worry. He is working as an electrical contact like building works in saudi arabia. Temperature there was 50yesterday. Is that the reason for low heart rate.

This can happen because of use of high dose of beta blockers used after surgery. Medicines need to be optimized.

You must increase your protein intake in the form of vegetable protein. Diet alone will not be of much benefit unless you add strength training to it. If you wish I can help you with proper guidance for diet and exercise.

Spine and Pain Specialist•Vasco

Hello
yes definitely
gabapin can be taken upto a lot more dose than you're taking.
Please increase the dose if needed. If you feel any dizziness thats when you stop increasing the dose. Every body tolerates it differently
I usually start with 100 mg once and raise it to 450 mg thrice as and how the patient tolerates
baclofen or liofen can also be increased (added with daily stretching exercises) to decrease stiffness
remember- these tablets only help you deal with the sy...more

Hello im 25 years old and I was born with an aortic stenosis (coarctation of the aorta), in 2015 I got surgery for it as you see they put a bypass right under my left subclavic artery that is trying to bypass the 2 mm stenotic zone. If you look closer you can see that the bypass got a stenosis on its own now, this id why I have tinnitus. Now the doctor said that he wil try to enlarge that 2 mm stenosis with a stent and close that bypass, as a result I wil lose the revascularization to my left arm, but that is not a problem as long as my t wil disappear, my fear is that the stenosis ca rupture as is realy thic, and I want to ask you guys, mby is a doctor in this group and sees this, what do you think, wil I die from an aggressive internal bleeding in the middle of the procedure, or will I live te hear what silicea sounds like ?
