I'm having some trouble at night, and I think it might be related to the medications I'm takingcarbophage 500 XR and MetXL 25, both twice a day. I'm feeling really uncomfortable. Could you give me some advice on what I should do?

View allI've noticed my resting heart rate has been between 48 to 56 for the past 8 months. Lately, I've been having chest discomfort, leg restlessness, anxiety, and feeling shaky, especially when I'm really hungry and my heart rate drops to 48-50. I've had ECG, echo tests, and more about 6 months and a year ago, and they were all normal, but they did mention sinus arrhythmia with sinus bradycardia. I've also dealt with GERD and vitamin B12 and D deficiencies, but I got treatment for those. I'm just not sure what's going on and why these symptoms are happening now. What should I do?
It sounds like you are experiencing symptoms related to your low resting heart rate and other issues. Since your previous tests have come back normal, it is important to address the symptoms you are currently facing. Based on your description, it is advisable to consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, you can try taking over-the-counter iron supplements to address any potential iron deficiency related to your symptoms. Additionally, you can consider taking Vitamin D supplements for your known deficiency. To help with your symptoms of chest discomfort, leg restlessness, and body shaking, you can try using a calcium channel blocker like Amlodipine at a low dose. This can help regulate your heart rate and improve blood flow. For your GERD symptoms, you can try using an antacid like Omeprazole to reduce stomach acid and alleviate discomfort. It is important to monitor your symptoms closely and follow up with your healthcare provider for further guidance and management.

I'm a bit concerned after getting my Holter test results back. It says I had 17 ventricular beats in tachycardia at 100 bpm and no bradycardia, with a sinus tachycardia peaking at 162 bpm just once. The doctors mentioned this might be normal for someone who drinks and smokes, and they advised me to quit both. The test was done because of an irregular pulse. Could you help me understand what all this means and how serious it is?
The holter test report indicates ventricular beats at 17%, beats in tachycardia (>=100 bpm) at 15%, and no bradycardia. Sinus tachycardia was noted at 162 bpm (maximum only once). It is advisable to quit alcohol and smoking, as advised by your doctors. The irregular pulse may be related to these habits. To help with the irregular pulse, you can take Metoprolol (brand name: Lopressor) 25mg twice daily. This medication can help regulate your heart rate and reduce the occurrence of irregular beats. Regular follow-up with your healthcare provider is recommended to monitor your progress.

So my mom started taking Razel CV20 in July 2017 after her doctor switched her from Ecosprin. She's diabetic, but her sugar levels have been under control for a few years. The thing is, she's been complaining that sometimes her hands and feet get cold, and she feels weak, although she usually feels better after about 12 days of rest. These symptoms weren't there when she was on Ecosprin. There's no other health issue, and all her tests are normal. But seeing that two of her older brothers passed away from sudden strokes in their mid-60s, I'm worried. Could these symptoms be hiding something serious? Is it safe for her to continue taking Razel CV? She had high blood pressure in the past but it's been normal for the last 4-5 years. With a family history of high blood pressure, diabetes, and strokes, should we be concerned?
yes continue tab razel cv , also avoid butter,ghee, meat etc,, Salt restricted diet is advised to the patien.
