Question 1

I'm really concerned about this persistent pain in my left arm that's been going on for around two months. I've had an ECG, ECHO, and TMT, and the doctor said everything looks good, but its still there. I found out my triglyceride cholesterol levels are a bit high, around 300. I've been on Rosufit10 for about the same time, but I'm not sure how long I need to keep taking it. I tried taking Gabapin Plus 100 for the muscle pain, did it for a month, but that didnt seem to help much. Now I'm considering going for a CT angio to get a clearer picture. Are there any side effects or risks I should know about?

Accepted Answer

For your high triglyceride levels, continue taking Rosufit10 as prescribed by your doctor. Typically, statin medications like Rosufit10 are taken long-term to manage cholesterol levels effectively. - Since Gabapin Plus 100 did not help with your muscle pain, you may discuss alternative medications with your doctor. They may consider prescribing a different muscle relaxant or pain reliever based on your specific symptoms. - CT angiography is generally a safe procedure, but like any medical test, it carries some risks. These risks include exposure to radiation, potential allergic reactions to contrast dye, and a small risk of kidney damage in individuals with pre-existing kidney conditions. It's important to discuss these risks with your healthcare provider before undergoing the procedure.

Question 2

I just sneezed and my chest really hurts. Its like this sharp pain, almost like something's pulling in there, maybe even my heart. This happens every time I sneeze. Should I be worried? What could be causing this?

Accepted Answer

An ecg will help to diagnose the condition

Question 3

I'm 33 and pregnant, about six months along. I've been keeping an eye on my pulse rate using an oximeter, and it's usually about 100 beats per minute. But today, it spiked to 130 beats per minute. Is this something I should be worried about?

Accepted Answer

Visit your Physician for appropriate management

Question 4

How long are ECG, 2D ECHO, and Stress ECHO results valid? I've done these tests and everything came back normal, but I'm curious about how long these results are considered accurate. Should I repeat them often or are they good for a while?

Accepted Answer

Echo is valid for 6-12 months.

Question 5

I've been having some weird issues with my heart rate. Like, even when I'm just resting, it's going over 100, and if I take a few steps, it jumps to about 150 and stays like that for 2-3 hours. My blood pressure's kind of off too, hovering around 130...

Accepted Answer

Based on your symptoms and ECG report, it appears that you may be experiencing tachycardia (fast heart rate) and possible signs of heart disease. The elevated heart rate, fluctuating blood pressure, fatigue, left arm pain, leg pain, headache, and shortness of breath after exercise are concerning symptoms that warrant further evaluation. I recommend that you consult with a cardiologist for a thorough evaluation and appropriate management. In the meantime, you can start taking a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol (25-50mg) to help control your heart rate and blood pressure. Additionally, you should make lifestyle modifications such as regular exercise, maintaining a healthy diet, and managing stress to improve your overall cardiovascular health. It is important to follow up with a cardiologist for further testing and treatment recommendations based on your specific condition.

Question 6

I'm experiencing palpitations on the right side of my chest, and my 2D echo results came back normal. Can you help me understand what's causing this?

Accepted Answer

Since your 2D Echo results are normal, the palpitations may not be directly related to a heart condition. I recommend trying to reduce stress and anxiety through relaxation techniques. Additionally, limiting caffeine intake and staying hydrated can also help. If the palpitations persist or worsen, you may consider taking a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol at a low dose under the guidance of a healthcare provider.
