View allI'm feeling a bit worried and would like some advice. I tested positive on December 19th and my CT scan shows corads 4. I've been diabetic for 10 years and had a heart blockage about 5 months ago. Recently, my D-dimer level is at 0.34, and my sugar levels are high, with an HBA1c of 8.9 and an average blood glucose of 208. Right now, I don't have any symptoms, but given my medical history, do you think I should consider hospitalization?

I'm starting to feel my pulse all over my body and it's been like this for about two weeks. I notice it in different places like my feet when I'm lying down and sometimes in my thighs, arms, and even my wrists and fingers. I can actually count the pulse without touching it, like it's happening one spot at a time. Is this something I should be worried about or could it be something serious?
This sensation of feeling a pulse in different parts of your body is known as palpitations. It can be caused by various factors such as stress, anxiety, caffeine intake, dehydration, or hormonal changes. However, if this symptom persists and is accompanied by other symptoms such as chest pain, dizziness, or shortness of breath, it is important to consult a doctor for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can try to reduce your caffeine intake, stay hydrated, and practice stress-reducing techniques. If the palpitations continue, your doctor may prescribe medications such as Propranolol to help regulate your heart rate.

I've been dealing with sinus tachycardia, and my doctor suggested I try met xl 12.5 mg. I've been on it for a few days, and while my resting pulse rate has dropped a bit from 100 to 90 bpm, it still jumps to around 105-110 bpm when I'm doing normal activities. I'm wondering if it's safe to up my dose from 12.5 mg to 25 mg, and how long would be okay to stay on that higher dose?
It is not recommended to adjust the dosage of Met XL without consulting your doctor. Increasing the dose from 12.5mg to 25mg should only be done under the supervision of a healthcare professional. They will assess your condition and determine if a dosage adjustment is necessary. Please consult your doctor for proper evaluation and guidance on the dosage adjustment and duration of treatment
