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 have dental caries in 89 teeth and need extractions but I'm on Clopilet A 75 for my CAD with a stent. My dentist says to stop antiplatelet meds for a week before surgery but I'm not sure if it's safe. I take Metrogyl and Augmentin occasionally for infections and mostly eat soft foods. Can I really pause my antiplatelet meds for that long without risking my heart?
It's understandable to be concerned about stopping your antiplatelet medication. While some dentists recommend pausing antiplatelet drugs before dental extractions, it's generally not considered necessary, especially for procedures like extractions that have a low risk of bleeding. Dental extractions can be performed safely without stopping these medications as long as appropriate local hemostatic measures are taken.

I'm really anxious about this pain I'm having under my left breast, and it's going down towards my rib. It's this heavy pressure that feels really tender and occasionally there's a sharp pain. I'm not sure what's going on, and it's pretty scary. There's also this sensation like bubbles in that area. What could this be? Is it something serious?
Get yourself examined by a doctor at the earliest.

Ive got rheumatoid arthritis, hypertension, and Hashimotos. I just had an ECG at a walk-in clinic for a pre-op check-up and it showed non-specific T wave abnormality and possible left atrial enlargement. Can you explain what that means? Should I be worried and see a cardiologist about it?
The non-specific T wave abnormality and possible left atrial enlargement on your ECG could be indicative of various conditions, including cardiac issues such as atrial fibrillation, myocardial ischemia, or structural heart disease. Given your medical history of rheumatoid arthritis, hypertension, and Hashimoto's, it is important to further evaluate these findings. I recommend consulting with a cardiologist for a more detailed assessment and appropriate management. In the meantime, it would be beneficial to monitor your blood pressure regularly and ensure that your rheumatoid arthritis and Hashimoto's are well controlled. If any symptoms such as chest pain, palpitations, or shortness of breath occur, seek immediate medical attention.
