I've been dealing with diabetes for the past 10 years and I've also got high cholesterol. I used to take Tonact TG, which really helped me a lot, but my doctor recently switched me to Ecosprin AV 75. My TMT came back positive, but all my other heart tests, including the CT coronary, were normal. I'm wondering if I can take Tonact TG and Ecosprin 75 separately instead of just using Ecosprin AV 75? I noticed that with Tonact TG, my LDL stays around 70 mgdL and it also boosts my HDL levels more than just taking atorvastatin. Can you help me figure this out?

I'm a bit worried about my ECG results that I attached. Is there anything serious I should be concerned about? I noticed the T axis is at 1. Can you give me some advice on what this might mean?

I've been fasting for the past few days for Ramadan and I'm 30 years old. I'm a bit concerned because I've been experiencing this slight pain in my left chest whenever I take a deep breath. Could this be related to fasting, like maybe from not eating for 12 hours? Is there something specific I should be worried about, and should I be taking any medication for it?

I had a stent put in my heart, and now, two years later, its blocked again. My doctor had to place another stent inside the blocked one. Is this normal or something I should be worried about?

Placing another stent inside an existing one is known as a "stent-in-stent" procedure. It is a common approach to manage blocked stents. The new stent helps to reinforce the existing one and improve blood flow. It is important to continue with prescribed medications such as dual antiplatelet therapy to prevent blood clots. Examples of medications include Clopidogrel (Plavix) 75mg daily and Aspirin 81mg daily. Regular follow-up with your doctor is essential to monitor the stents and overall heart health.
