Whenever I feel stress , even day to day life stress causes chest tightness and heavy breathing. I feel numbness in my legs and hands. Sometimes my legs start shaking and my hand also shivers and automatically my fist closes or tries to hold something and close fist tightly.
I sleep a alot . Even then after some hours I feel sleepy. After my breakfast either my head feels heavy or light and my eyes starts closing and I feel so sleepy that I can't resist it for too long and then I sleep again .
Recently she was diagnosed with blockage after she experienced chest and back pain. Initially we thought it was gas pain. Now I do not have the details of medicine prescribed by cardiologist but can I give oxygen from oxy99 can if she is breathless? Can I give her cherry and beetroot in daily diet? Doctor has said that 95% blockage after echo. Is it possible to say so? What course of action and diet do you advice?
Doctor, I’ve been experiencing the following symptoms:
1. My heart beats rapidly and also throat carotid pulse beating rapidly.
2. I get goosebumps on my left arm.
3. I feel tingling and twitching in the veins/nerves of my left arm, neck, shoulder, back, and sometimes my cheek and eyebrow.
4. When I wake up after lying down, it feels like something is moving from the veins in my shoulder toward my chest, like a worm running through the veins.
Whar is this? Can you please tell and give some advise?,
EECP vs Better Non-Surgical Options: 61F Post-Pulmonary Edema (TVD, 42% EF)
61F. Frail/thin. Hospitalized last week for 1st time with acute pulmonary edema (now resolved). Currently stable: lungs clear, SpO2 98%, Pulse 82-85, FBS 155, PPBS 198. Has intense thirst and fragmented sleep.
Angiogram: Severe TVD. LMCA 30-40% stenosis; LAD total occlusion (filling via active collaterals); Distal LCX 90-95% stenosis; RCA total occlusion (retrograde filling). Surgeons advised against CABG/PCI due to frailty; recommended medical management as collaterals are compensating.
2D Echo: EF 42%, mild PAH, multiple hypokinetic LV segments. Chambers/IVC normal.
Meds: Axcer 90mg BID, Aspirin AV 75/40, Bisoprolol 1.25mg, Angispan 2.6mg, Oxra 10mg, Tab Leni 40mg (1.5 tabs/day). NovoRapid (10-10-8) + Lantus (10u at 10 PM). Strict 1L fluid limit, zero-salt diet.
Questions:
Can EECP safely mature her collaterals, or does increased venous return risk re-inducing pulmonary edema so soon?
