Heart Diseases

He has a treatment. He was given blood thiners so it could thin his blood so the blood clots disappear. He saids that when he brushes his teeth or he walks 4 blocks he gets tired. He is 67 years old. Will he live long? He already had a mild heart attack 9 months ago. I have him in a healthy diet.

but what if you already have that? (a heart murmur - 'pulminary valve stenosis') what could happen? will it make it worse?

My Grandad has been referred to the Cariologist because he has a fast heart rate and has also been diagnosed with anaemia. He's 75 - could it be fatal? He's not overweight and I would've said he was generally quite healthy. Can someone tell me a bit more if they can - thanks.

I have a heart condition and i might have to go into surgery soon. On the back of my medic alert it says: Repaired Tetrology of Fallot/ prosthetic pulmonary valve situs inversus.

I have to now get the valve replaced and my doc says that there is an "obstruction" blocking part of a main vein. This is causing my heart to work harder. I have to go into surgery and i was wondering what aree the chances that i could not get back from having my heart being taken by life support (the thingy that pumps blood for you)? Also, if i survive that is there any chance i could die earlier than a regular human? I am kinda scared and i need help PLEASE.

Can anybody advice me the reason for heart palpitation, especially in the night just before going to bed or in sleep. I checked with my Dr who checked ECG Cholestrol etc and said no problem and gave some vitamin tablets, then it decreased, after one week again started. Anybody have similar experiences?

My husband is starting a new blood pressure medication, Lisinopril. Because he is taking other medications, I cannot figure out the best time of day for him to take this additional daily pill and achieve desired results.

My husband asked me to post this question. He was born with a defective heart -- congenital heart disease. He was operated on in 1949 by Drs. Blalock and Taussig at Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, Maryland, when he was 3 years old. He was not a "blue baby", but the "blue baby" surgery was the only option to keep him alive at the time. He had open heart surgery, again at Hopkins, when he was 10 years old. He still has heart problems, but without those operations, he would not have lived very long. He is now 60 (almost 61) years old and has wondered if others were still around that had that same surgery performed by Drs. Blalock/Taussig?

Well I honestly really dont know if this is a serious problem, but I find myself getting tired real easily. Even just by having a quick walk or getting excited for some reason my heart begins beating fast. It was never like this before and I never had any heart conditions, but now I can practically see it beating from my chest. I feel normal and everything is working fine, but is it normal to see your heart beat???

I REALLY need help on this, so if anyone knows why this is happening or if this is a serious issue I need to go get looked at please reply I'd really appreciate it. Thanks.

Could this be stress? I don't feel stressed, but lately I have had concerns regarding the sudden death of a couple of friends my age (40ish).

My friend is going to have a re do of his 1st bypass surgery which was done over 15 years ago. I would like to know how it turns out the 2nd time around. He has already had veins salvaged out of his legs from the 1st bypass and now I suppose they will take them out of his arms or somewhere else. I need to know what I can do to help him. He is just a really nice fella and is scheduled for the bypass on Friday.

I am preparing for a surgery that requires opening of the chest. This DOES NOT involve bypass surgery. Does anyone have an experience with this and can you describe the recovery? Thank you.
