Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. In any case, beer and gutka are unhealthy. You should not use them. No doctor shall advice the other way round.

Gutka alone may not be reason for heart attack. Sedentary life style and other reasons must have caused it. As long your medicine is concerned, you should consult your doctor for further advice. He knows your physical and health conditions better than us and his advice should be treated as final word.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
