I'm a bit worried because I've been taking Rosukem A1075 after getting diagnosed with T2DM in September 2018. The cardiac doctor I visited then suggested this medication for a normal ECG and echo. But I've just got my annual health checkup reports, and both the ECG and TMT turned out fine. Now I'm unsure if I should keep taking this tablet. My diabetologist says I should continue with Rosuvas 5. Could you help me figure out what to do?

Since you were advised Rosukem A1075 by the cardiologist, it is important to follow their recommendation for your heart health. Rosukem A1075 contains Rosuvastatin 10mg and Aspirin 75mg, which helps in managing cholesterol levels and reducing the risk of cardiovascular events. As for your diabetologist's advice to continue Rosuvas 5, it contains Rosuvastatin 5mg which also helps in lowering cholesterol. It is important to follow both specialists' advice for optimal management of your conditions. So, you can continue taking Rosukem A1075 as advised by the cardiologist and Rosuvas 5 as advised by the diabetologist for your overall health."

What are the signs of a silent heart attack for someone my age? I'm a young guy and just trying to understand what I should look out for.
A silent heart attack, also known as a silent myocardial infarction, can occur without the classic symptoms of chest pain. For young males, signs may include unexplained fatigue, shortness of breath, discomfort in the upper back or jaw, nausea, sweating, or lightheadedness. These symptoms can be subtle and often mistaken for less serious conditions. It's crucial to be aware of these signs, especially if you have risk factors such as a family history of heart disease, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, smoking, or obesity. If you experience any of these symptoms, seek medical evaluation promptly.

I've noticed that my heart rate changes with my posture. When I stand, it's around 105-116 bpm, sitting brings it down to 90-100 bpm, and when I'm lying down, it's 75-85 bpm. My blood pressure doesn't really fluctuate much though. So, I went ahead and got an ECG, and it showed sinus tachycardia but otherwise normal. The strange thing is I can feel palpitations in my neck and chest when I stand, but I have no other symptoms. I run on the treadmill at 5-8 kmhr without any problems and my pulse stays between 100-120 bpm, but right after stopping, my pulse jumps to 163 bpm before gradually coming down, and my blood pressure was 140 over 75 at that moment. Should I be worried about this?
Based on your symptoms and the ECG report showing sinus tachycardia, it seems like your heart rate is elevated in response to changes in posture and physical activity. Sinus tachycardia is often a normal response to certain triggers such as exercise or stress. However, it is important to monitor your symptoms and follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, you can try to stay hydrated, avoid caffeine and other stimulants, and practice relaxation techniques to help manage your heart rate.
