I'm a bit worried because my homocysteine level came back as 44.4 from the Thyrocare test results. Can you tell me what the normal range should be and any advice on how I can lower it? Also, I've noticed that my hs-CRP is 2.99, is that something I should be concerned about?

I'm a bit concerned about getting the COVID vaccine because I had angioplasty about a decade ago and have been taking ecospirin tablets since then. I've heard that the vaccine might be risky for people with a history of blood clots. Could you please shed some light on whether it's safe for someone like me?

It is generally safe for patients who have had angioplasty and are taking ecospirin (aspirin) to receive the Covid vaccine. The benefits of getting vaccinated against Covid-19 outweigh the risks, especially in individuals with a history of heart disease. However, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider before getting vaccinated to ensure it is safe for your specific medical condition.

I've been feeling this slight pain on the right side of my chest, kind of close to the center, for about 45 days now. I also have some acidity issues. Should I be worried about this?

The pain in the center of your chest could be due to acid reflux causing heartburn. I recommend taking antacids like Tums (500mg) as needed for relief from acidity. Additionally, you can take Omeprazole (20mg) once daily before breakfast to reduce stomach acid production and alleviate symptoms. Make sure to avoid spicy and fatty foods, eat smaller meals, and avoid lying down immediately after eating to help manage your acidity problem. If the pain persists or worsens, it is important to seek further medical evaluation.
