Question

Hey, I've been wondering about the 2D echo test. How long is it valid for someone with a heart condition? And what about a healthy person? I'm just trying to understand the difference.

Question

I'm a bit worried about my health and would appreciate some advice. Recently, I've managed to reduce my high blood pressure in just 12 days, which is great, but now I'm experiencing some weird symptoms. Occasionally, I have this sharp chest pain on the left side that feels like I'm being poked with a needle. Sometimes it switches to the right side, and drinking water seems to trigger a bit of pain too. It feels like something's touching my chest inside. My shoulder also feels uncomfortable at times. I've also been passing a lot of gas and sometimes my throat feels really full. These symptoms are similar to what I experienced about two months ago. Does this sound like something serious?

Question

I've checked my lipid profile and noticed that my serum triglycerides are at 234. I'm wondering how many Ecosprin AV150 tablets I should be taking for this. Can you help clarify?

Question

I'm experiencing some pain in my left chest and left hand for the last couple of days, and it feels like it might be related to gas. Can you suggest any remedies or should I be worried about this?
