I'm dealing with an anxiety disorder, and my doctor prescribed me 12 Ciplar LA 20. Unfortunately, it's out of stock, but I found Ciplar 10 instead. I'm wondering if they're the same or if I should do something different. Can you help me figure this out?

View allI recently had a TMT and an ECG done, and the ECG is attached for reference. The TMT report mentioned no ischemia, but I'm still getting some random chest pains, especially when I'm lost in thought. I've been given an antacid for it. How long is the TMT result considered valid?
The validity of a TMT (Treadmill Test) can vary depending on individual circumstances, but generally, it is valid for 1-2 years for individuals with a low risk of heart disease. Since your TMT report shows "No Ischemia" and you are experiencing random chest pain, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can continue taking the antacid as prescribed. If the chest pain persists or worsens, please consult your doctor for further assessment and management.

I'm a bit concerned because I've been experiencing a fast heartbeat after I climb stairs or if I'm walking in the sun for just about 10 minutes. Even while cleaning a room, my heart rate seems to go up rapidly. I'm 20 years old, weigh about 65 kg, and I'm 5.4 inches tall. Could you tell me what might be going on?
A fast heart rate after climbing stairs or walking in the sunlight is often due to your body's increased demand for oxygen during physical activity: Climbing stairs: When you climb stairs, your heart works harder to pump blood to your muscles, which increases your heart rate. This is called sinus tachycardia, which is a symptom, not a condition. Sunlight: Physical activity can cause your heart rate to increase.

Is there a difference in total lipid profile results when a test is done fasting versus non-fasting? A week ago, I got my lipid profile checked and all the parameters were within the range. But after taking another blood test post-meal seven days later, the values were outside the desired range. Could you guide me on whether fasting or non-fasting results are more accurate?
There won't be much variation, ideally fasting results and considered to be valid, In your scenario, that could be lab error also, visit your doctor for evaluation and appropriate management
