I'm really concerned about my 75-year-old mother-in-law who has a pacemaker and had to stop using her hearing aid. Her cardiologist mentioned that the electromagnetic signals could mess with the pacemaker. I'm wondering if it's possible for her to use both if we keep the hearing aid battery more than 6 inches away from the pacemaker. If so, what kind of hearing aid would you recommend in this situation? Would love your advice on this.

View allI'm experiencing some pain under my left collarbone since this evening. I've been dealing with acid reflux and started taking a proton pump inhibitor since Sunday. That day, I felt chills in my arms and chest, and my doctor said it might be anxiety and gave me a prescription for an antidepressant, but I'm not taking it yet. I had an ECG done on Sunday as well, and I'll include the report with my question. Also, I've got a cholesterol level of 124. Should I be concerned about this pain?

I'm curious if it's common to have mild mitral regurgitation. Can I live a normal life with it, or do I need to limit activities like exercise or long travel?
Mild mitral regurgitation usually does not cause any symptoms and does not typically require any restrictions on exercise or travel. You can continue to live a normal life without any limitations. However, it is important to follow up with your doctor regularly to monitor the condition and ensure it does not worsen.

I'm 22 and I've been dealing with some blood pressure issues. I was on propranolol, but it didn't seem to help much, so my doctor switched me to telmisartan and metoprolol. I'm a bit concerned about switching meds so quicklycan stopping one and starting another suddenly cause problems? Also, since I'm pretty young, are these medications going to have any negative effects on me? I think my BP might be more of a "white coat" issue than a constant problem. What do you think?
Yes you can take it ,follow your doctors advice
