I'm getting palpitations after just one drink of alcohol and my ECG results show something about a QRST contour abnormality and possible inferior myocardial damage. What should I do about this?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Based on your symptoms and ECG findings, it is important to avoid alcohol consumption. You should also consider taking medications such as Metoprolol (25-50mg) to help control your palpitations and protect your heart. Additionally, you may benefit from medications like Aspirin (75-150mg) to reduce the risk of further myocardial damage. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

View allI'm feeling a vibration sensation in my left chest that's been going on for a few seconds at a time. I had an ECG and ECO test done, and both came back normal, and the doctor told me that I don't need any medicine. But I'm still experiencing it sometimes, and I'm just wondering how long it might take for this vibration to stop?
In this case, you may be experiencing palpitations or muscle spasms. To help alleviate these symptoms, you can try taking a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol 25mg once daily. Additionally, practicing stress-reducing techniques such as deep breathing exercises or yoga may also be beneficial. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation.

I'm really worried about my dad. He's been taking ecosprin AV but he's been having some abdomen pain, so the doctor suggested a USG, and they also mentioned theyll do a TMT test. In the meantime, they've switched his medication from ecosprin AV to a mix of Telmisartan and Metaprolol Succinate until they can do the TMT test. Unfortunately, we couldn't get the USG and TMT tests done today. Is it safe for him to stop taking ecosprin AV for now?
it is advisable to follow your doctor's instructions regarding medication changes. In this case, since your father's medication has been changed from Ecosprin AV to Telmisartan and Metoprolol Succinate combination, it is important to continue with the new medication as prescribed. Once the TMT test and USG are conducted, the doctor will be able to provide further guidance based on the results. It is generally not recommended to stop medication abruptly without consulting the doctor. Therefore, please continue with the Telmisartan and Metoprolol Succinate combination as advised by the doctor

I'm really worried about my mom. She's been dealing with hypertension for the past 8 years, and now she's caught a cold and has a cough. The doctor recommended she take Azithromycin 500 for five days. My question is, is it okay for her to mix this antibiotic with her blood pressure meds? I'm not sure if there's any interaction or something that we should be concerned about.
yes u can continue taking the tab for your cough..
