This question is regarding my Father, he suffered a heart attack around 5-6 months back... since then, his left arm still at times will go numb, and he s been having alot of problems with his legs and feet, they swell from the ackle down and there blotchy, red in color.. he also has got a spot that came up in the corner of his eye (sort of on his nose). It looks like dead skin! However, when he rubs his eye that spot and sometimes even his eye lid will turn deep purple, almost black even. I know the heart doctor he see s has put him on some different medications.. I m not exactly sure what they are. He s talked to his Doctor about whats going on with his legs, feet, and as well the spot on his eye/nose.. the doctor doesn t seem to be worried about the issues. My Dad has had issues with irregular heart beats, he s had the ablation (I think that s what it s called lol where they burn a valve in your heart to regulate it). When he was 14 years old, he suffered from scarlet fever which lead to romadic fever and cause heart complications at that very young age.. . He was in the hospital for almost a year with involuntary movements.. so he s always, always had heart issues. He has lived with bad chest pains his whole life. He has a wife and 3 kids, now us kids are grown and he has grandchildren! :) He s been a wonderful Dad, and I want to keep him around long enough to be a wonderful grandfather to these very young grandchildren he has. ;) My point is, nothing seems to help him... everytime the Doctor tries something new, something else goes wrong! I m not saying anything bad about the doctor, he s a very pleasant man and im sure he knows what he s doing! I m just concerned.. my Dad is soon to be 61 years old, but has lived a very rough life with his heart. Does those symptoms sound familiar to you? Is that common in other patients with heart problems?
