Is cardiovascular blood supply deficiency the same as coronary heart disease?

Patient's question:

My mom is 49 years old this year. She often gets dizzy and sometimes wakes up suddenly while taking a nap in the evening. So, I wonder if insufficient blood supply to the cardiovascular system is angina pectoris?

Doctor's answer:

If there are no symptoms of heart disease, medication may not be necessary for the time being. Dizziness requires consideration of two aspects: one is cerebral blood vessels, and the other is otogenic. For cerebral blood vessels, it is essential to conduct a thorough examination of the carotid and vertebral arteries using color Doppler, as well as transcranial Doppler. If the cerebral blood vessels are normal, you should visit an otolaryngology department. In daily life, consume more fresh vegetables, fruits, fish, black fungus, a very small amount of vinegar, and dry red wine, etc.
