Cardiologist,  's  Response
Hello,

It is necessary to check his lungs and his stomach. For this reason, I would recommend consulting with his doctor for a physical exam and performing some tests:
- A chest X-ray study
- Complete blood count, PCR, ESR for inflammation
- Tests for helicobacter pylori.

You should discuss with his doctor on the above tests.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
