View allI'm trying to understand if the Carca 3.125 medication I'm taking after having a stent placed is related to the headaches I've been experiencing. My blood pressure seems to be stable around 10567 after taking the meds, so I'm a bit puzzled. Could the Carca be affecting me this way?

I'm dealing with rheumatic heart disease and usually use Penicillin LA12, but it's currently unavailable. My doctor suggested I take Pendids 400 instead. Are there any concerns with switching to this medication at the age of 30, or is it safe to use in place of Penidura LA12?
Penicillin G Benzathine (Penidura LA12) is commonly used for the treatment of Rheumatic Heart Diseases. Since it is currently out of stock, Penicillin V (Pendids 400) can be a suitable alternative. The recommended dosage for Pendids 400 is usually 400 mg taken orally every 6 hours. It is important to follow your doctor's prescription and guidance for the proper treatment of your condition.

I'm a bit confused and worried right now. My ECG report showed 206uV in the aVR lead with some ST elevation, but both the echostress test and MRI came back normal. The doctor told me that everything's fine, but I'm still concerned. Could you help me understand why there might be an elevation in the ECG, even when other tests seem normal?
"Based on the information provided, it seems like you have ST elevation in AVR on your ECG report, but your echo, stress test, and MRI results are normal. If your doctor has reassured you that you are fine, you may not need any specific treatment at the moment. However, it is important to follow up with your doctor for regular check-ups and monitoring. If you experience any new symptoms or concerns, please consult your doctor immediately."
