Question 1

I'm a bit concerned about a medication change I went through. So, originally, I was prescribed Telma 40 AMH at Pace Hospital in Hyderabad, but I started experiencing some leg swelling. Then, at Manipal Hospital in Vijayawada, they switched me over to Cinod T, and I've been on it for about two months now. Should I keep taking the Cinod T, or do you think the original Telma 40 AMH was adequate? Could the leg swelling have been something I should worry about related to the Telma 40 AMH, or is it safe to switch back?

Accepted Answer

Telma 40 AMH is a combination drug containing Telmisartan and Amlodipine, which is commonly used to treat high blood pressure. Cinod T is a combination drug containing Cilnidipine and Telmisartan, also used for high blood pressure. Since you experienced leg swelling with Telma 40 AMH, it may be advisable to continue with Cinod T as prescribed by Manipal, Vijayawada. Cinod T can be continued if it is effectively controlling your blood pressure without causing any significant side effects. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and monitoring.

Question 2

I'm really worried. My total cholesterol came back as 108 and there's a star next to itwhat does that mean? I've been having heart palpitations and got my ECG, 2D echo, and TMT done, and everything turned out normal. Can you help me figure out whats going on?

Accepted Answer

A total cholesterol level of 108 mgdL is considered low, and while low cholesterol is generally not a concern, it may sometimes indicate underlying conditions like liver issues or nutrient deficiencies, so its worth discussing with your doctor. Regarding your heart palpitations, its reassuring that your ECG, 2D echo, and TMT tests came back normal, suggesting no immediate heart problems. Palpitations can still be caused by factors like stress, anxiety, caffeine, or electrolyte imbalances, so its important to monitor any triggers or patterns. Ensure you're maintaining a balanced diet (especially electrolytes like potassium and magnesium), managing stress, and avoiding excessive caffeine or alcohol. Since your tests are normal, but palpitations persist, you may want to follow up with your doctor for further advice and possibly consider a Holter monitor to track the palpitations more closely.

Question 3

I'm 41, unmarried, and I'm carrying quite a bit of extra weight108 kg with a height of 5 feet 7 inches. I've got asthma and I used to take Formoflo inhaler 250mg and Asthalin rotohaler 200mg regularly, even Montek AB for a bit. But since I haven't had symptoms for a while, I stopped. Then recently, after climbing stairs, I had some breathing trouble and found myself needing to take deep breaths and yawning a lot throughout the evening. I did an ECG a week ago that showed everything was okayjust that my heart skipped a beat. My last master health check-up was 45 days ago and that was fine too. I saw a cardiologist because I had chest pain, and they suggested doing a TMT. I've also got GERD. So, my mind's been racing a bitshould I be worried about heart disease or fluid in my lungs? I'd really appreciate some guidance.
