I recently got over Covid, testing negative on May 5th, 2021. Now, I've started experiencing some post-Covid symptoms like shortness of breath and a faster heartbeat. I had a Lipid Profile test done, and it turns out my cholesterol levels are high. I'm feeling a bit better now, but my doctor suggested I take some meds like Anleo DSR, Korandil 5, Montek AB, Vitoxy Plus, and Rozavel A for a month. Is it safe for me to get the Covid vaccine while I'm still on these medications?

View allI've been dealing with palpitations and high blood pressure diagnosed at 140 over 90 around four months ago. They did an ECG and ECHO, and those came back normal. I was prescribed Telma 20 and Ivabradine 5mg for the BP and palpitations. I recently stopped taking Telma 20 for a few days to keep an eye on my BP, and it settled at a constant 130 over 76. Do you think I should stop taking the BP meds altogether, or is it better to keep going with them? I've also made some lifestyle and diet changes. What do you suggest?
Yes you can stop the drug and check your BP daily for 2 weeks if its maintained normal,you can pause the drug an dcontinue healthy life style

I'm really worried about these heart palpitations I've been having for the past six months. Whenever they happen, I rush to the hospital. The ECG showed atrial fibrillation, and that's got me concerned. Is this something dangerous that I need to be really worried about? Also, my 2D Echo results were normal. Can you help me understand what's going on?
Heart palpitations can be concerning, especially when associated with atrial fibrillation on ECG. Atrial fibrillation is a type of irregular heartbeat that can increase the risk of stroke and other heart-related complications. It is important to manage atrial fibrillation to prevent these complications. For atrial fibrillation, you can take medications such as Dabigatran (Pradaxa) to prevent blood clots and Metoprolol (Lopressor) to control heart rate. In some cases, electrical cardioversion or catheter ablation may be recommended. It's good that your 2D Echo is normal, but it's still important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management of your atrial fibrillation. Regular monitoring and treatment are essential to reduce the risk of complications.

My dad's looking really tired lately, and I'm worried because he's been on Metocard XL 50 mg twice a day. His blood pressure has been ranging from 13070 to 15075. I'm just trying to understand what might be causing this. Any ideas?
It is possible that your father is experiencing facial weakness as a side effect of Metocard XL (Metoprolol) medication. This medication belongs to a class of drugs known as beta blockers, which can sometimes cause muscle weakness or fatigue as a side effect. However, it is important to note that facial weakness can also be a symptom of other underlying medical conditions. It is recommended to consult with your father's healthcare provider to discuss this symptom and explore other possible causes. In the meantime, it may be helpful to monitor his blood pressure regularly and ensure that it stays within the target range.
