Patient's question:
Half a month ago, I went to the hospital because my heart was always feeling like it was being watched, and my lungs were also in pain. I was diagnosed with cor pulmonale. After taking medication, I felt a bit better, but in the past two days, my body has appeared with some new symptoms. I want to ask, after the relief of cor pulmonale, is it not possible to eat dinner, feel nauseous, and have a bitter mouth?Doctor's answer:
Cor pulmonale is a type of heart disease originating from the lungs. It is generally caused by respiratory dysfunction in the lungs, leading to insufficient oxygen supply in the blood. In severe cases, it may also lead to heart failure. Therefore, it is normal to experience some symptoms of compensation. After the symptoms of cor pulmonale subside, the compensatory system symptoms will not disappear immediately. Thus, it is recommended that you maintain patience and continue with your current treatment diligently.
