I'm really concerned about my dad's health. He had a bypass surgery back in 2007, even though he hadn't had a heart attack. He's been doing well all these years, just keeping up with his regular meds and walking routines. He's also been managing diabetes for the last 35 years. I'm wondering, is it okay for him to start swimming now? Do you think it'd be safe for him given his medical history?

View allI'm really concerned because I've been experiencing some chest pain, tightness, a burning sensation, and even pain in my shoulder blade and hands. I've consulted two different doctors about this. The first doctor advised me to take Ab Flo capsules, but the second doctor was more cautious and said I should only take it if I have asthma. So the second doctor gave me Pantocid 40mg, but even after taking it for the past two days, I'm still not feeling any relief. Could you please guide me on what steps I should take next?

We've been giving our mom Axcer 90 mg along with other meds like Atocor, Ecospirin, and stuff for her thyroid for about two months now. We're wondering if we could stop the Axcer since we've been on it for a while and honestly, it's just really expensive. We can't keep up with the cost. Is there a cheaper alternative that works just as well? Would love to hear your advice on this.
no do not stop it without doctors advice,as you say you are having affordability issues,ask your doctor for alternate medication
