Heart Problems & Remedies

Hi Doctor My 15 day old kid has been diagnosed with hole in heart VSD. strangely no scan was able to detect it. Doctor has said need to wait for couple of months and we may have to go for surgery as the hole is less likely to close on its own. I'm tensed about his future, the surgery complications. Wondering if any alternative against surgery. Please guide. Thanks

Hi, My father was diagnosed as dilated cardiomyopathy 5 years back and his EF was 42 percent. Of late, when the Echo was done may be it's 40 percent. He had some symptoms earlier coughing, fatigue but now now.. Just sometimes while sleeping he gets shortness of breath .. I know this is a common symptom .. My question is.. Can we change from Carvedilol to Bisoprolol . Can we see some improvement ? Also, changing from repace 50mg twice a day to valsartan would help in any way ? Is there a lot of side effects in taking Valsartan ?

I smoke upto 10 cigarettes a day and drink once or twice in 2 month. I get nonspecific chest pain occassionally which frightens me a lot, ECG, 2D echo are always normal, but this pain is very scary. Right now I'm getting a pain like a needle prick every few minutes with lot of burps. Please suggest help on this. Is there an SOS medication that I can carry and take it in emergency time? Any suggestion will be greatly helpful.

15 days before my father underwent angioplasty and got placed one stent in his artery. From last 7-8 days he has been very weak and lost his appetite. He also had fever at irregular interval ranging 100-101° F. We gave him paracetamol and azithral. Now from last 1.5 days he doesn't have fever but still have very weakness and his mouth become very dry with white coloured tongue,discomfort in swallowing, some obstruction in throat with little cough. Because of his weakness I couldn't take him to the cardiologist who had operated him. Is this common problems after angioplasty, is this matter of worry ? Please advise what should I do?

I have been experiencing chest discomfort for over 5 months. Pain is extremely dull and on both side of the chest, it feels like poking pain and lasts barely 5-10 seconds in one place. I have no problem in moving around and doing my every day activities however I have mild pain in my arms and neck since last 10 days now. My blood works, including lipid profile,B12,D3, chest X ray, ECG,echocardiography are all normal. ESR is 38 and haemoglobin is at 11. There is no pain in my chest since past 10 days but I am worried about the pain in my arm. What could it be? I've spoken to 7-8 doctors and all of them suspect musculoskeletal issues. Please look into the matter. Below I've attached my echo report.
