      I got few questions doctor
      1. Ur FFR is based on normal blood flow? If it is, how u get the pressure comparison done( if all arteries are affected, or they may have some sort of blockages)
      2. FFR can be found on Stress test or in some case it cannot be found. Like stress test can show no abnormalities
      3. If 50% lesion(let's say on LCrX artery, with a FFR based on AI=0.8), you do stent or you perform DCB?

    • @anivaava
      @anivaava 7 місяців тому +1

      For step1, why I asked is..if u take blood pressure inside the arteries(assuming the arteries have blockages and blood flow is already bad in those). So that will be the baseline u taking or how u get the FFR rate to be based on

    Last November Dr. J saved my life in the cath lab in Orlando. I got covid in 2022. It wasnt bad but it closed of my preexisting stents. Every other cardiologist wanted to take me straight to open heart surgery. Luckily I am in the field of cardiology. I decided that the terminal end of my Lad was too small for surgery. Dr J agreed and had me report to the cath Lab. He performed a very complex stenting procedure with intra arterial lithotripsy. Believe me. He is not only a gifted interventionalist but a beautiful human being. There is no way to thank him enough. I was barely able to walk into the hospital. After 3 months I am back in the gym bench pressing 300lbs. I really love this man. He is truely a gift to all of us

    I had a widow maker two years ago aged 64 and started to follow as much as I could the doctors advice with my diet. I am not a saint but restrict time eat five days a week. Cook my own food, salad for lunch, no bread, biscuits, cake, pasta, etc. No processed food, only eat out maybe once a month at most. Also, I use extra virgin coconut and olive oil in moderation and no snacks. My sins are a couple of beers at the weekend and a few glasses of red. I have a sweet tooth, so i do have a piece of 85% dark chocolate during the week and maybe a slice of cake at the weekends. I have never been offered any tests except echo cardiogram. No CT calcium etc. Things I have noticed myself are the following : I lost 24lbs, and this has allowed me to enjoy the gym three times a week. I work out for calories burnt per session and raise my heart beat to 140 to 150bpm three times. Usually, I'm there doing aerobics for an hour with a period of intensive work. When ot at the gym I stay active, do jobs for people I know and out doors. Physically, I feel improved. I have no dry cracked skin on knees and elbows, and my adult lifelong friend athletes foot, which I had suffered from for 40 years, has completely gone. My enflamed tonsils (again 40 years) have gone, and I never now get tonsil stones. I no longer get bleeding gums when I brush my teeth. I no longer have bleeding piles breaking out every few months. Numbness in my big toes has gone. My feeling is that even without confirmation of my health status by testing to a large degree, the body can find ways of showing the direction of travel. I do occasionally worry about not knowing, but good walks and keeping busy are their own remedy. Even if my arteries are calcified and will never improve the doctors advice has been I feel good for me. As for my own cardiologist, I feel he is a good man. He listens and encourages, but I guess he is limited to what he can offer. On balance, for a patient, I feel too much information can be both a good and a bad thing. I'm 66 now and I'm happy to have general good health as my goal. I would like to thank the good Doctor for his work and encourage those around him to follow the same direction.

      By "Widow maker", do you mean you had a CAC test and it showed a High score?

    • @tonyprice1526
      @tonyprice1526 8 місяців тому +15

      @shotelco no I had a heart attack with a 100% blocked LAD. This is about the worst type of heart attack anyone can get with a very low chance of survival unless immediate medical intervention is given. Hence the name widowmaker

    • @shotelco
      @shotelco 8 місяців тому

      ​@@tonyprice1526 Understood. Just wanted to clarify. I had a CAC score of 1400, and my GP used the term "Widow maker" as well. Then this GP said "You are a ticking time bomb". Which freaked me out. At age 65, with ZERO hereditary heart problem history, and some 7 years ago I purposely lost 100 lbs. by eliminating ALL sugars, breads, simple carbs, ect., then 6/18 incremental fasting to get off that last 30lbs., this GP "referred" me to a cardiologist, who wanted me to get an angiogram. I asked him what the risk were of such an invasive procedure, vs. the risk of this CAC score. He said the CAC "indicated" a 4% chance of a "cardiovascular event" within the next 5 - 10 years, and the angiogram had a 1% chance of _inducing_ a heart attack, a 1% chance of _inducing_ a stroke, and a 1% chance of _inducing_ an embolism. So a 3% chance of something going South, just to see what the "blockage" may be.
      I declined. Did more homework. Found a NEW type of CT technology, just being rolled out commercially in 2023 called PCCT (Photon-Counting Computed Tomography ). Its a non-invasive SUPER-ultra-HIGH resolution 3D CT scan that can see past the "blooming" effects of calcium, and provide a very accurate view of any blockage, AND determine what state any Plaque may be in.
      I doubt even Dr. Jamnadas is aware of this technology. But certainly not these American witch doctors I have been dealing with. When the cardiologist suggested the angiogram, he looked at my chart and realized I was "self-pay" for this visit (The original cardiologist my GP referred me to NEVER responded to the referral). So Insurance ONLY pays for a referred specialist, and I had to find one myself. When this guy saw "self-pay" he asked, "How are you going to afford this $30,000 angiogram I want you to have" (ostensibly to pay the financing on his Yacht?).
      It is my _OPINION_ that Dr. Jamnadas makes a common sense argument; the root cause of Heart problems is lifestyle. I STRONGLY suggest anyone reading this far research PCCT themselves.
      Consider this: With respect to an extremely HIGH CAC score - competitive marathon runners have CAC scores sometimes above 4000. Yet their longevity is the same or better than most. Search "heart of stone" "calcium score", as its the stresses they put on their hearts during training and competition, which cause the damages, and subsequent healing that now shows a calcium in a CAC. I too was a competitive athlete, yet these --clowns-- I mean "physicians" never asked about my history. Doesn't mean they are wrong about my prognosis, but all they know is what they have known for the past 30 years, without ever seeking to learn anything new.
      There are ONLY 3 PCCT devices I have found installed in America at this time, and only ONE in Florida that will provide the scan without a "referral". A PCCT CT scanner will be installed at UCLA in late summer. An out-of-pocket PCCT scan is $1100 at the Florida location. At trip to Indonesia and back to get the PCCT is about the same all-in cost. There are perhaps 10 PCCT devices in Europe. So although novel, PCCT is available. Hopefully, Dr. Jamnadas actually reads these comments and looks into this tech himself.
      I wish you well, you're doing exactly the right thing in terms of mitigating any further damage to your cardiovascular system!

    I really appreciate your videos. I'm 57 female with a calcium score of 325. My score actually went down from 395 2 years ago! I did a CCTA and showed several spots of 70%+ blockage of my LAD. Just had a heart cath done and he did the pressure test of the blockages. They were 90 & 91. No stents. That's fascinating! I go in for my post procedure check up next week. What questions should I ask? I am getting more exercise and watching foods and toxins already. It's amazing how many toxins we are exposed to in everyday life. Thank you so much for your videos. I have learned so much and it gives me information to be my best advocate for my health.

    My brother who is on statin for his cholesterol went for a free cardiac check up here in Sydney and he passed his stress test with no symptoms. He then mentioned to his cardiologist that he wants to stop taking the statin as it's giving him joint pain, the cardiologist told him to have CT angiogram before stopping his statin. The CT angiogram showed his calcium score=68 and he has 90% blockage in his LAD and immediately put on Aspirin /Clopidogrel and he's booked for invasive angiogram in 2 weeks time . He's really nervous about it and so worried that they are going to stent his artery unnecessary so, I sent him this video , so he can ask about his FFR. Thank you Dr Jamnadas for this well-informed educational video. There are some doctors out there that will do unnecessary procedures just to get paid by the insurance or Medicare .

I got a stent and really wonder if I needed one as never heard of FFR and no mention of that and little or no discussion before I was told and being wheeled to the angiogram lab... I also know they used dye both times so I guess it was a CT Angiogram.

My doctor gave me a stent 7 days ago, I’m in so much pain where the stent was placed, I wasn’t given anything for pain management except Tylenol. It doesn’t even touch the pain. I pray it doesn’t become blocked again I can’t take the pain. From listening to this, I’m sorry I got the stent. Thank you, this has told me so much about peripheral artery disease.
