Question about Heart Attacks?


Question:
My Father tonight called me upstairs asking me to sit with him to calm him down, hes never had a heart attack before but he is 50, a hard working man, and I know as much as he does that his body is wearing down, he said he felt woosy, dizzy and his heart rate kicked up fast, he just dident feel right, this has been happeing lately and hes gone to the Doc's, yet I want to know, what could help him if he does get too stressed and his heart begins to over work and cause harm to him? And how can I lower his Blood Pressure and Colesteroal (Spelling on that is bad, sorry).

Answers:
He needs to calm down and relax no matter what that means. He should eliminate as much stress as possible. He should't eat big meals and he should avoid animal fats. Drink lots of water and not smoke. He should eat oatmeal and other whole grains.
try lipitor or a similar medication for cholestrol and atenolol or similar for blood pressure. have him visit a doc there is no OTC cure
