Patient's question:
Doctor, hello. My husband has been having some difficulty breathing recently, feeling chest tightness, and his heartbeat is particularly fast. Then, my husband went to the hospital for a thorough examination. The results showed that my husband has myocardial ischemia and tachycardia. Doctor, how should my husband be treated?Doctor's answer:
I'm very happy to provide a consultation on your medical history. Your husband currently does not rule out coronary heart disease. It is recommended to have blood tests including complete blood count, blood sugar, and lipid profile, as well as an echocardiogram and Holter monitoring. If necessary, cardiac CTA or coronary angiography may be performed to clarify the condition of the coronary arteries. If coronary heart disease is confirmed, formal treatment is required, including oral antiplatelet agents and lipid-lowering drugs to dilate the coronary arteries.
