I'm really worried because my mom recently had a heart attack and her LVEF is at 25. We have her on Zoryl twice a day to help with her diabetes, and we're planning on getting her blood sugar tested soon to see if it's working. But I'm really concerned about her NTproBNP levels being so high. Is this something that needs another medication to manage? Should I be really worried about the high NTproBNP levels, and does it pose a serious threat to her health right now? Any advice you could give would really help.

For acidity, consider: Lifestyle changes: Avoid spicy fatty foods, eat smaller meals, and manage stress. Over-the-counter antacids or acid reducers like ranitidine or omeprazole. Probiotics to maintain gut health. A body temperature of 98.5F (36.9C) is within the normal range. Normal body temperature ranges from 97.7F to 99.5F (36.5C to 37.5C). Consult your doctor if you experience persistent acidity or other concerning symptoms.

Question

I've been dealing with a recurrent pericardial effusion and had it removed twice already. After the second removal, I was given steroids but stopped them after a month, and now the effusion is happening again. I've also been on TB medications for four months. I'm really concerned about this recurring issue. Can you suggest any permanent solutions or steps I should take next?

Question

I recently got my blood test results back, and I'm a bit worried. They showed that I have high blood pressure and elevated liver enzymes, with my SGPT at 57 UL and SGOT at 50 UL. My doctor prescribed Atoris for the blood pressure, but I heard it might not be good for people with high SGPT and SGOT levels. Could you let me know if that's true and what I should do?

Question

Lately, Ive been noticing that every time I stand up or go for a walk, my heart starts racing to around 130bpm, and it doesnt calm down until I sit or lie down. My chest hurts, and my legs feel weak and shaky during these times too. I did have an iron deficiency last year, but it never made me feel like this, and even though it's still slightly low, my recent results show it's getting better. Ive had an ECG done, and that seemed fine, so I'm wondering if I should be seeing a cardiologist. Could this be something serious?
