Hey Doc, I recently went through some medical tests and discovered that my homocysteine levels are really high. I'm currently on zincovit, but I'm wondering if I should switch to a stronger multivitamin. Can you recommend one that might help lower my homocysteine levels? Appreciate your guidance.

Question

I'm on some medications right nowConcor 2.5, Paxidep CR 25, and Nexpro RD 40for panic disorder and concentric LVH. I've been thinking about doing some cardio exercises like running, jogging, push-ups, sit-ups, and maybe some light weight lifting with a dumbbell. I'm planning to do this for about 30 to 40 minutes, five days a week, because I've noticed I'm gaining some weight. I weigh 70 kg at a height of 5'3". Is it okay to keep up with these exercises while on these meds, or should I be cautious?

Question

So my dad had CABG surgery on March 9, 2017, and everything seemed fine while he was in the hospital and ICU, even when we got home. But during a routine check-up on March 22, some of his meds were stopped. A couple of days later, he developed a fever around 99-100. We told our doctor, and he suggested blood and urine cultures. The urine culture came back positive with two bacteria, and one was really resistant to antibiotics. The surgeon prescribed Linospan 600 and Furadantin 200, twice and thrice daily, but the fever didn't go away. Another culture at the hospital showed negative for infection in his urine, yet his fever continued around 99-99.5. After a week, another urine culture was still negative. We tried stopping his Combiflame, and the fever went away for a couple of days, but then it returned, and we had to start Combiflame again. Why is his fever persisting despite all these medications and negative test results? Could it be something other than an infection, or are we missing something important? Any advice on what we should do next?

Question

I'm really worried about my father. He's had high blood pressure for about 20 days now. He's already a BP patient, but lately, his pressure is shooting up to around 16090. He was on promolate xl 25 before and now he's been switched to telvas 40 by the doctor. It doesn't seem to be helping control his blood pressure, though. Can you suggest anything that might help us manage this better?
