View allI've been experiencing heart palpitations, shortness of breath, and feeling lightheaded since Sunday. I've also gained a bit of weight and recently had an argument with my husband. I have PCOS and I'm currently taking metformin. Could these symptoms be related to my condition or medication? Should I be concerned?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of anxiety or a possible cardiac issue. Given your history of PCOS and current medication, metformin, it is important to consider any potential interactions. I recommend you to consult with a doctor for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, to help alleviate your symptoms, you can try taking a beta-blocker such as Metoprolol at a low dose of 25mg once daily. Additionally, practicing stress-reducing techniques such as deep breathing exercises or mindfulness meditation may also be beneficial. Remember to prioritize self-care and seek medical attention if your symptoms worsen or persist.

I'm really concerned about the medication I've been on for the past 7 years, Amodep AT. My doctor mentioned it might have some side effects and suggested switching to TelemiKind 40. I'm a bit worried and want to know if it's safe to make this change. Can you help me understand if there are any risks or things I should watch out for with TelemiKind 40?
Yes telmikind is safer medicine.

I'm about to go to bed but suddenly I felt this weird burst-like sensation near my heart. Since then, I've been experiencing heart palpitations, occasional chest pain, and a constant numbness in my left hand. What could be causing this? I'm pretty worried and would love some guidance on what steps I should take.
