Question

I had a heart valve replacement in 2012 and take 3mg warfarin daily would it be safe for me to get the COVAXIN vaccine? I'm a bit concerned about how it might interact with my medication.

Question

Can you help me understand if Gabapentin and methylcobalamin tablets are actually meant for pedal edema? My grandmother thinks it helps reduce her swelling, but I thought it was for her neuropathic pain from cervical spondylosis. She's also dealing with grade 2 diastolic heart failure, and her cardiologist prescribed this. I'm just worried if we're using it right and if it really helps with edema, any advice?

Question

I'm really concerned about my cholesterol levels. I had really high LDL cholesterol at 293, but after taking medications like Rosuvastatin, changing my diet, and exercising more, my bad cholesterol has apparently gone down to normal. I'm wondering though, since high bad cholesterol is known for causing blockages in arteries, does it mean I'm in the clear now that my levels are normal? Or should I still be worried about any existing blockages?

Question

Is it normal to feel your heartbeat at night? I've noticed that I'm getting anxious easily too. Could this be a sign of something wrong with my heart? I'm a bit worried.
