Can Cardiac Arrest Happen Despite Normal Heart Reports?

With Normal heart reports on DEcho and TMT, there’s a minimal probability of cardiac arrest. But one should bear in mind that cardiac arrest may happen to anyone, anywhere and even people with no previous history of their heart being affected by any illness. Any signs and symptoms including chest pain, shortness of breath or palpitations should be referred to a cardiologist for an evaluation.

What Could Be Causing Nausea and Chest Discomfort After Ischemic Stroke in a 71 Year Old?

The causes of your father’s chest pain and burning sensations include acid reflux, anxiety or medication side effect. But considering his past medical history of ischemic stroke and age, a cardiac cause must be excluded. I suggest a cardiologist referral for further evaluation and treatment. He should continue with the medication used to treat his stroke and have regular visits from a health care provider.

Should I Seek Emergency Care for Chest Pain Lasting 3 Days?

I'd advise that you go to see a cardiologist very soon. Chest pain may present very serious issues with the heart, especially at your age. A cardiologist would further investigate the etiology by doing an echocardiogram or a stress test and then give appropriate management.

What should a 62-year-old do with 30% heart pumping and no blockage after 2 heart attacks and 5 years on medication?

You should consult a cardiologist as soon as possible to determine how well your heart functions. A drop from 42% pumping to the level of 30% is considerable, and it may call for a modification in medication or other therapy. Heart health must be taken care of by the specialist to avoid further heart attacks.
