I'm worried because my wife has been taking Concor AM 5 and she's started experiencing some sweating and headaches. Could this be caused by the medication, or might something else be going on?

Your wife may be experiencing sweating and headache as side effects of Concor AM 5. These side effects are relatively common with this medication. I recommend consulting with her doctor to discuss these symptoms. In the meantime, she can try to stay hydrated and rest.

I've been experiencing a rapid heartbeat and palpitations with no specific timing. Sometimes it feels like my heart is sinking. I've had an ECG and TMT, and both came back normal. I also have hypothyroidism, and my doctor thinks it might be due to anxiety. I'm wondering if I should get any other tests to rule out heart disease. What do you think?

Based on your symptoms and the normal ECG and TMT results, it is likely that your palpitations and fast heart rate are indeed related to anxiety, especially given your history of hypothyroidism. However, if you still have concerns about ruling out any underlying heart disease, you may consider getting a Holter monitor test to monitor your heart rhythm continuously for a period of time. This can help detect any irregular heartbeats that may not show up on a standard ECG. Additionally, an echocardiogram may be considered to assess the structure and function of your heart. In the meantime, managing your anxiety through relaxation techniques, regular exercise, and stress-reducing activities can also help alleviate your symptoms.

I've been experiencing some chest pain in the center of my chest after I eat. It's been happening for the past couple of days, and the pain comes and goes throughout the day. Sometimes, the pain is in my heart and left chest, and it's really bothering me. I also feel it a lot in the right chest, in the middle of the two chests. I can't easily visit a clinic because it's far away and with corona, I'm trying to stay safe. Is there any medicine you can suggest that I can get from a medical shop nearby? I'm really worried and would appreciate your help.

I've been dealing with a recurrent pericardial effusion and had it removed twice already. After the second removal, I was given steroids but stopped them after a month, and now the effusion is happening again. I've also been on TB medications for four months. I'm really concerned about this recurring issue. Can you suggest any permanent solutions or steps I should take next?

It sounds like you are dealing with recurrent pericardial effusion despite previous treatments. Since you have been diagnosed with tuberculosis (TB) and have been taking TB medications for the past 4 months, it is important to continue with your TB treatment as prescribed by your healthcare provider. In addition to TB treatment, your healthcare provider may consider prescribing colchicine to help prevent recurrent pericardial effusion. Colchicine has been shown to be effective in reducing the recurrence of pericardial effusion in patients with a history of recurrent episodes. Please consult with your healthcare provider to discuss the possibility of adding colchicine to your treatment regimen for a more permanent solution to your recurrent pericardial effusion.
