Avatar m tn If I'm correct you target heart rate would be 136 BPM. I'm not saying to go out and hit that right away, work up to it and make sure you Dr knows that you are working out a bit. http://www.heart.org/HEARTORG/GettingHealthy/PhysicalActivity/FitnessBasics/Target-Heart-Rates_UCM_434341_Article.
Avatar m tn My father is 60 years old and had a heart attack last week. When diagnosed he had 80% blockage in one artery and a minor block in other artery. His Coloestrol, sugar and BP is perfect. Doc though is suggesting a bypass, can anybody suggest that is it the last remedy or we can have some scope through medicines?

Avatar m tn I am just wondering if you know how big the risk is for an operation like this? Do many of these operations happen? Because i have had a few operations before, does that greatly increase my risk this time (due to scar tissue around the heart)? I live in Australia and my specialist here gave me the talk of it being a high risk operation, etc.

Avatar f tn Although the type of symptoms you describe could be related to a heart condition, it can also be related to spinal issues, muscular skeletal problems; acid reflex or heart burn can also cause these type of severe problems. Also be aware that if you do any physical heavy moving, pushing, pulling or lifting, this too can cause muscle spams.
Avatar m tn Re-operations are generally thought to be higher-risk than first-time operations, but some of the top centers (on the order of Mayo, Cleveland Clinic, Texas Heart, Mass General, etc.) are showing re-op mortality and morbidity stats that are very similar to first-time stats. The skill of the surgeon plays a huge, huge role. Your daughter needs an expert surgeon. In my opinion, she should try to go to a major heart center for this operation, even if she has to travel.
Avatar f tn Yes whilst I am soooooo sorry to hear about your sunny weather, we in Scotland have had snow up to our necks and now the rains. Although the last few days have been very nice and hot. Sorry too about the Pollen Steven, as I am a hayfeverer sufferer and pollen makes my life a misery each year. Yup this volcanic thing has stopped nearly all flights. I have friends who are away in NZ for Easter and can't get back! I am sure they are really hating THAT!! Glad everyone is doing well...so glad.
Avatar n tn MANY MANY PEOPLE HAVE A LEAKING HEART VALVE. EVEN VERY YOUNG PEOPLE. IT IS OFTEN CALLED A HEART MURMUR. SOMETIMES PEOPLE MAY NEED A NEW VALVE REPLACED WITH SURGERY, AND EVEN IF YOUR MOM'S VALVE WAS LEAKING THAT BADLY, THESE OPERATIONS ARE DONE OFTEN AND ARE VERY SUCCESSFUL.
