I'm feeling a bit worried and could use some advice. My cardiologist recently told me to take Ecosprin AV 7520 every evening. Meanwhile, my diabetologist has put me on Ator 10 at night along with Metsmall 500 SR and Semi Reclimet. Is it safe to be on both Atocor and Ecosprin at the same time? Is there something I should be looking out for or any side effects I should be aware of?

There is no harm in taking both Ator 10 (Atorvastatin) and Ecosprin AV 7520 (Aspirin + Atorvastatin) together as prescribed by your cardiologist and diabetologist. Ator 10 is a brand name for Atorvastatin, which is a statin used to lower cholesterol levels, while Ecosprin AV 7520 contains Aspirin and Atorvastatin, which helps in preventing blood clots and reducing cholesterol. Just make sure to follow the prescribed dosages: Ecosprin AV 7520 daily in the evening and Ator 10 at night along with Metsmall 500 SR and Semi Reclimet.

I'm really concerned about my father's heart condition. His report says the LVEF is 25, which I read somewhere is quite low, and theres mention of severe LV systolic dysfunction. The terms like "Grade mitral regurgitation" and "moderate pulmonary arterial hypertension" caught my attention. Can you help me understand what all this means? Also, what should we be doing next to manage or improve his heart health?
That seems to your father is at risk of serious cardiac disease with this report no need to worry its conservative management,follow cardiologist advice and reduce physical activity.

I'm working night shifts from 5 PM to 3 AM IST, and my routine has me going to sleep around 3:30 AM, then waking up at 11:30 AM. I usually have my first meal at 1 PM, which is lunch. After that, I often take a nap, but during this time, I've noticed my heart feels like it's beating very fast, and I can actually hear it beating. Could you help me understand why this might be happening and what precautions I should follow?
After having lunch and going to sleep, feeling a high heart rate and hearing your heart beating sounds could be due to a condition called palpitations. Palpitations are feelings that your heart is skipping a beat, fluttering, or beating too hard or too fast. This can be caused by various factors such as stress, anxiety, caffeine intake, dehydration, or certain medications. To help reduce palpitations and maintain a healthy heart rate, you can try the following precautions: - Avoid heavy meals right before bedtime - Stay hydrated throughout the day - Limit caffeine intake, especially in the afternoon and evening - Try to manage stress through relaxation techniques or activities - Ensure you are getting enough sleep and maintaining a consistent sleep schedule If the palpitations persist or worsen, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.
