View allI've been experiencing this breathlessness, and every time I check my pulse, it feels like there's a mild heartbeat with a skipped beat. Should I be worried about this?
Sometimes feeling breathless and experiencing palpitations can be concerning. It's important to get evaluated by a healthcare provider to determine the underlying cause. In the meantime, you can try using a beta-blocker like Metoprolol (25-50mg) to help with the palpitations and reduce the sensation of skipped beats. However, it's crucial to get a proper diagnosis and treatment plan from a healthcare professional.

I'm currently taking 4mg of Acitrom because I had an AVR procedure. My doctor suggested adding Ecosprin 150 mg, but since Ecosprin is also a blood thinner, I'm feeling a bit uncertain about taking both. Could I be at risk for any complications, or is this combination really safe?
Taking Ecosprin 150 mg along with acitrom can increase the risk of bleeding due to their combined blood-thinning effects. It is important to follow your doctor's advice, but if you have concerns, it is best to discuss them with your doctor.

I'm dealing with Sinus Arrhythmia and have been on Cordarone 100 daily. I recently had a 24-hour Holter monitor test, which showed many periods of Sinus Bradycardia and frequent PVCs. My Echo cardiogram says LVEF is 72 with Trivial MRTR. Everything else like my ECG, lipid, thyroid, kidney, and liver profiles are coming back normal. My HbA1c is at 4.9 and my hemoglobin is 15.10. Can you please help me understand what all this means and if there's anything specific I should be doing or worrying about?
