Hi all,

My dad just fainted just now under hot sun . Thought it was heat stroke so we bring him to medical hospital to check.

Did MRI scanning, check no sign of stroke.

Did ECG test, doc said my dad got blockage at the artery. Got 3 artery, 1 of them got blockage. Another 2 can't seen clearly. He mentioned not all able to perform surgery? I was like ,huh?

Hope all forumers able to advise me in this situation. Is it high cholesterol causes this?

Can diet helps? I'm worry about my father. TQ

Dont do exercise.

Blocked arteries need to be fixed. Ask Dr. on detail.

No stroke or mild stroke is good sign.

Monitor food intake. Less rice diet, or basmati diet. As normal rice have lots of carbohydrate.

Thanks. No stroke or anything but why he can faint? Any reason to prevent this? He has high blood pressure

High blood or low blood people can pengsan easily. Plus if sugar content is low in blood stream at that point of time. Standby sugary drink aside if suspected he got hipo glucose scenario.

Noted that. I will check on my dad

Yes always remember about this, damage control. Heart surgery might mitigate the issue, but is it severe enough can it be controlled by other means. Less damaging by medication vs surgery with medication.

And as I know heart surgery very expansive. We are not from rich family either

Doctor said my dad RNA artery got 90% blockage. Need bypass or through baloon. the stupid docs 1 say 1 artery block, another doc say second artery block. who to trust?

Im planning to bring my dad to another hospital for further checkup. If can, through belon will be better. Hopefully all is well

Take care TS, good that you're seeking opinion from another hospital. If blocked, best to fix and clear the blockage.

Hope all is well.

Thank you. It's better to seek for 2nd opinion instead of blindly follow one.

oh, sounds like what my dad kena last time.

he was admitted to hospital and have to stay there for 3 days, diet and no smoke for further check.

Doctor gave him ubat cair darah for sakit jantung....... cus his blood was too thick.
Fast forward, he did minor operation and installed stent in his heart.
And, he consume whatever doctor told him so, according to his condition. (sorry Im not sure what his meds)

Hi thanks. Yeap, he was injected with the ubat cair darah. Doc say my dad almost kena heart attack ytd. But we sent him in, doc straight inject the blood dilute medicine and he immediately feel better. Is it bcos the thick blood rushing?

Now he was given two choices either bypass or through balloons. I think bypass Abit risky. The doctor keep persuade my dad to undergo bypass! Are they trying to milk the money from us??????

Why my dad can't take chlorestrol medicine? He excreted blood when he defecate whenever after he took the medicine.

Ytd admitted again, as he fainted one more time. BP low and straight faint. I sent him once again to the hospital.

I'm kinda worried. Doc want perform colonoscopy and stomach checking see which part bleeding or have ulcers. Hope for the best for my daddy

ECG can suggest which territory of the 3 main cardiac vessels that COULD be compromised. ST depression in leads II, II and aVF (these are Inferior Leads)may mean some cardiac ischaemia involving the Right Coronary Artery; ST elevation in these same will spell out an acute Heart Attack for you. Go for Coronary Angiography.. now you will ''see clearly'' which vessels have what and where.

To me your dad had a heat stroke. Just rehydrate, stay in shades, stay in-doors. But at some point he will a cardiologist for the ECG changes that your doc saw. Good luck

This doc will perform another angiogram for my dad tomorrow's.

Now we're at another hospital as the first hospital said there's blockage and needed bypass. Fuck no first of cause. Forget to mention the first hospital forced us to sign the bypass surgery. Now we moved to the second hospital.

He will do the testing tml, see if my dad able to go with balloon procedure. Wish hi. Speedy recovery

Hi, sorry to hear this but it's better to consult a specialist to do a full heart check up. Prevention is  better than late treatment since there are many risk factors for heart disease. It could be your family history, high cholestrol n blood pressure. Age, smoking, alcohol all can be risk factors. It's really hard to tell. I suggest you do a blood test. If got symptoms or blockage and you not sure why, go do a heart scan. Calcium score or CTA angiogram can tell exactly where your blockage is. I suggest the doctors here. They are very professional in heart disease. Also, if you worry about your parents, u can get a watch for them to monitor their pulse and heartbeat n so on. I hope this helps. Take good care of yourself n family!
