Question 1

How do I know if my chest pain is serious?

Accepted Answer

Any chest pain needs physical examination by a doctor and tests to know the cause. On a general note, if chest pain is associated with heart burn, abdominal bloating, belching then it may be due to gastritis which may be managed at home. If chest pain is sudden, radiating to left arm/ shoulder and is associated with sweating, breathing issue then it may be due to a cardiac condition which needs immediate hospital visit.

Question 2

I'm on ctd12.5 in the morning and bisoheart 5 mg at night for the last three years, which has mostly kept my blood pressure in check. But for the past week, my BP has been high at 160103. Could you let me know why this might be happening and what I should do about it?

Accepted Answer

It seems like your blood pressure is not well controlled despite your current medications. I would recommend increasing the dosage of your current medications or adding an additional medication to better control your blood pressure. You can consider increasing the dosage of CTD12.5 to CTD25 in the morning and Bisoheart 5 mg to Bisoheart 10 mg at night. However, it is important to consult your healthcare provider before making any changes to your medication regimen.

Question 3

I'm a bit concerned about my heart health. In March, my cardiologist recommended a 2D echo and TMT test. I've started taking Prolomet R50 and Deplatt A 75 as prescribed. I'm just wondering, does it seem like we're on the right track with the treatment plan?

Accepted Answer

See a specialist for accurate diagnosis and targeted treatment.

I'm a bit concerned about what my recent echo showed. It mentioned something called Grade I diastolic dysfunction. Is this something normal that I shouldn't worry about or do I need to consider any treatment? Would really appreciate some guidance.
