Although the medical profession does not give much weight to the probability of anyone below 40 to have coronary vessel occulusions (that would by the symptoms you are expressing), autopsies of returning military personnel from the Iraq war to have advanced coronary artery disease.
You should consult with a doctor regarding symptoms, as you could be vulnerable for a heart attack..
A recent heart catherization revealed several blockages but I am not experiencing any symptoms (no angina, no chest pains). Are there any alternatives to open heart surgery? PS I have been told that stents and angioplasty are out of the question.

However, it the symptoms are very rare, it will be very hard to record them for medical analysis. The normal approach is to have a person wear a 24 hour monitor, that is almost surely not going to work given you history, even a 30 day monitor, a lot of aggravation to have to wear that long, but that may be the only way to catch and record the symptoms.
Hello, I'm from China. Two days ago, I went to the hospital to draw blood. After the nurse drew blood, the nurse tore a band-aid and pasted it on the needle I just finished the blood. However, when the nurse put the Band-Aid, it was not accurate for the first time, and then when the second time was adjusted, the nurse's hand touched the center of the Band-Aid, and then put it on the eye of the needle I had just finished drawing blood.
I would definitely say you need some medical attention. In fact, I would copy what you wrote to us and take it directly to the ER. I would think they would have to see you. Your symptoms do not sound good to me, and I would sure be wanting to check them out. I know moving causes stress, and you are undoubtedly under lots of that,but, I feel there is more to this, so, please, try to get attention as soon as possible.
Please keep us posted.
If his LAD is completely occluded and supplied by collateral vessels, it will be important to ensure those vessels supplying the blood flow remain healthy/open as they are the primary source to his heart. Further interventions from this point forward would depend primarily on a battery of test results (ejection fraction, stress/viability testing, metabolic stress testing) and his clinical history (presence/degree of angina, heart failure functional class, etc).
hello and welcome to this forum. I cannot add anything to what the previous poster has written; understand that many children go through these types of proceedures every day across tis country and do perfectly well. You need to listen to your daughter's pediatric cardiologist as he has the ability to see your daughter and to listen to her heart; that's how he makes his evaluation. Take cre.
I hadn't eaten anything and it's not really happened again with the lump in throat and pain in jaw. The only thing I notice when I eat is I always feel full and "heavy" in the area center below my breasts. Apparently the drinking water issue is likely due to the fact that I don't usually and when I do I drink as much as I can to get it over with and that depletes electrolytes.
The facility should be treated as holiday resort and not a medical treatment center. Also on further checking they do not have a cardiologist on staff or any modern equipment on the premises except ECG and BP meters. So it would be extremely dangerous to stay there for a heart patient. There is no well equipped hospital anywhere in the vicinity from what I found out.
Thanks again for your help.
Several medical studies have indicated that the sternum may press on the heart enough that the heart cannot fill with blood and pump it out as rapidly as with a normal chest. If P.E. hasn't presented problem after many years, there may be no medical problem.
If P.E. is medically a problem with the above conditions, there can be a low cardiac output that causes shortness of breath, chest pain (angina), etc.
It would be good to have one to make sure that the valves are working as they should and possibly have a stress test to see what happens to your heart while you are exercising. I, too, have chest pain in the center and left side and the doctors have found nothing wrong to date. Heart failure is usually diagnosed when the legs swell or the abdomen swells. There is water weight gain with heart failure and heart failure patients need to weigh themselves everyday.
is generally in the major blood vessels providing the heart with oxygen and nutrients. If this spasm stops the blood flow to the heart there may be damage to the tissue. Damage to the tissue is reflected by the so-called cardiac enzyme test. If there is damage to the heart muscle there will be a high level of these enzymes. The test is faily definitive.
The reasons for the spasms are unclear. Magnesium deficiency is one posible reason. Ask your doctor before taking supplements.
If you would like to make an appointment at the Cleveland Clinic Heart Center, please call 1-800-CCF-CARE or inquire online by using the Heart Center website at www.ccf.org/heartcenter. The Heart Center website contains a directory of the cardiology staff that can be used to select the physician best suited to address your cardiac problem.
She was brought into the CCU on many machines and a ventilator. She also had a pump in her groin that matched her heart rate in order to help it function correctly. She had so much fluid that they decided to place her on dialysis to remove the fluid because her kidneys were not functioning. We had a cardiac surgeon come in a couple days later. He said to us that they were going to have to go back in and replace her mitral valve because it wasnt functioning correctly.
Looking up the definition of extrasystole in a medical dictionary it appears they are the same thing.
I am halfway into a 30 day heart monitor due 2 syncope that I have had within a 9 month period, which occur without warning and I have blackouts that follow the fainting. I do see when my monitor has recorded events throughout the day, but should I be concerned that events are being recorded at all? Do the recorded events mean that the Monitor has pick something up and therefore I should be concerned?
At 15 weeks, my baby's heart rate was 191. I went to one of those 3D/4D centers that do the early gender sonogram, so the ultrasound tech couldn't really say anything about the heart rate since they are a non-medical center. Is this too high? Every other time my baby's heart rate was in the 150s-160s range.
i have done 2 ekgs in the past 4 months, blood tests chest xray to find out if there was an underlying medical problem. The thing that makes me think i have heart problems is i have been having pain in my left arm, armypit area pain, back pain shoulder pain for quite a long time. Is it possible that 2 ekgs could have missed a major heart problem or maybe my heart problem has just surfaced now? i have no family history of any heart problems at all.
