Homeopathic Heartburn Remedy

Q.My 45 yr old husband has been failing faint for the past week. He asked me to take him to the hospital this past Sunday. He is still there and it is Tues. eve. Since Sunday, his heart rate, which has ALWAYS been low (bradycardia) usually 50bpm, has been in the 30's. The doctor ordered EKG, blood and stress test - they came back negative. An echocardiogram was ordered, but our regular doctor's office keeps faxing the report to the wrong hospital, so we don't have the results yet. Today he had a carotid artery Doppler test as well as a chest MRI. We don't have results yet. He doesn't feel faint today, but he has a heaviness in his chest and since yesterday, he said it has morphed into feeling like a burning inside his chest. They gave him an injection for gastric relief- the nurse thought perhaps the burning is heartburn. He is in good shape, not overweight, does not smoke, drinks a little, works very hard. What could it be? So far, they don't know. Can anyone hazard a guess as to what it is? Tomorrow they want to do a catheterization. can anyone suggest me some good homeopathic remedies to treat him at home please I only want to take him to the hospital as a last resort.

A.No other symptoms? Maybe test for liver problems, Hepititus and a tear in the aorta. That chump doctor that keeps sending the information to the wrong hospital needs a phone call to blast him into getting that right. I would start to push these people into getting you some results--fast. Ask why they want to do a catheterization if they don't have results yet. Contact a heart specialist for a second opinion, let them know this is something that needs attention now, not tomorrow. The doppler is a good idea-- he may have a slight leak. Good going, getting him into the hospital. Keep a close eye on him and make sure he gets excellent nutrition, including high grade supplements like Vemma, essential vitamins and minerals that are no longer available in today's food. So much of the food these days is depleted. Hydration and sun may help too. Stay in touch with the doctors. You need to take him to a different hospital NOW!!! They have very likely misdiagnosed him, even though test results are coming back negative. There is clearly something wrong with his heart's electrical system, a block of the atrial pathway, due to some interference. The most common interference in the pathway is insufficiency, (lack or reduction in the blood supply). The most common cause of that is vascular clogging or valve malfunction. Some tests can show negative, then the secondary testing shows positive. Like an Exercise Tolerance Test (ETT or Stress Test) can show negative, then a Nuclear Scanned ETT shows clear blockage. He should have a second battery of cardiac tests, in light of the heart rate change and classic signs of angina or possibly heart disease. Cardiologist referral, Nuclear ETT, Holter monitor testing, results, then see what testing would be indicated from there. Remember, the most common cause of death in medicine is malpractice.
