My father-in-law recently suffered a stroke. Two days prior, he was working in the hold of his boat working on the engine, along with two other people. The hold is enclosed and the engine was running. Some of them started having a headache. My father-in-law shooed them out and he finished up in a few more minutes. For the next couple of days he complained of his stomach not feeling right. Then as he was walking up some steps, he fell and became unconscious for just a minute. Ambulance came. He was disoriented and threw up. Still in hospital but improving.

I'll add that he does take several high blood pressure medications, but has no history of strokes. (Blood pressure was high when ambulance came.) I know that we may never know, because it could have all been blood pressure related, but is/are there any definitive studies linking carbon monoxide poisoning and strokes?

My dad is very overweight, has been for a long time. His eating habits aren't even bad, but he just keeps gaining weight. He has a high stress job, and he has problems with depression, so I suspect that is why he keeps gaining. He excersizes every day, but recently he confessed to my mom that he has been feeling some chest pain. I don't know how bad, but what exactly could that be? Signs of a heart attack coming, heart disease?
I'm trying to get him to lose more weight, but it's easier said then done. He lives about an hour away, so I don't see him every day. What could I do to try and motivate or help him? I don't want him to drop dead in the near future, I have two kiddos that love him very much. Any advice will be apreciated.

My Son In Law is an alcholic, and has been to hospital. He is 43 and to add to this problem, the Dr.said his heart was enlarged and beating extreamly fast. Now I know if he doesn't stop drinking he will die. His liver function last count was 35%. I just found out he has been drinking since he left the hosp. He is the father of my 2 grandsons, he works everyday, I don't know how! He is a good husband and a great father. If he weren't I would tell you. I'm here asking for info on this large heart problem, and what will happen to him if he doesn't stop drinking. I love him like he were my son, and his children will be devistated if something happens to him. They are 7&3 years of age. I will be greatful for any advise anyone would share with me. I'm at a loss, I know he has to want help first, before he can get help. I think he is in denial and doesn't think he has anything wrong with him, due to the fact he works everyday. Thank You So Much for listening.

I was thinking it's because the aorta extends into the abdomen but then again, I also heard that aortic aneurysms pulsate too. I've had this sensation since I was a kid though so I'm wondering if it's normal. I never learned about it in school even though I'm now a nurse. Just like some knowledgeable input. Thanks.

I have a terminall illness, and theres nothing that can be done for me.
I was born with a hole in my heart, and i was sent to hospital age 4yrs with my parents,but the professor didnt see anything and sent me home.So because the hole in my heart wasnt detected i then collapsed at 21years old where i suffered no oxygen going to my brain as the blood flow was going right to left through chambers of heart and not going to lungs to produce oxygen to my brain.When consultants took tests to consider closing the hole in the heart they discovered i also had primary pulmonary hypertension also known as Eisenmenger Syndrome(you can check this online if want to know more).Then i was told i wouldnt live a matter of weeks, i was told also id never have children as it would kill me and my child,but 8yrs ago on 26/8/99 i gave birth to my boy 5months early weighing 2lb-2oz.Id love to do things for him but on warfrin i cant tavel i require blood tests every 2/4days.Machine i need is £399.im 34yrs old

I had this test done in the hospital about two weeks ago when I was hospitalized for chest pain. When the test came back the doctor stated to me that the test looked ok but they still wanted to run more test. I am still having chest pain and I have to go and see my doctor every two weeks to check my pressure in between seeing the cardiac doctor. Also at home my mother as had to start taking my blood pressure manually because the automatic machine has a hard time finding a pulse in my left arm and it inflates to much, and even manually she has a hard time she and other people who have taken my BP in the left arm has said the pulse was faint and that they can here a clicking noise what could be causing this the pulse is always weaker. I am taking nine different meds for my heart but they told me that the muscle was fine but wont to do more test I don’t understand. I am not over weight, don’t drink, smoke, are do drugs.
