I've been diagnosed with restrictive cardiomyopathy and my doctor has put me on Dytor 5 Plus and Cardace 1.25. He mentioned I need to take these meds for 6 months, but I'm a bit worried about whether it's really safe to be on Dytor 5 Plus for such a long period. Could there be any side effects from taking it for 6 months or maybe longer?

View allI've been getting some pain on both sides of my chest from time to time, and I'm a bit worried about what it could mean. I had a chest X-ray recently and it came back normal, but can an X-ray really tell if there's something wrong with my heart or lungs? Would it show everything that's important, or should I be looking into other tests or something?
Chest x-rays are primarily used to visualize the lungs and surrounding structures, so they may not always detect heart problems. Since your chest x-ray came out normal, it is unlikely that there are any significant issues with your lungs. However, if you are experiencing chest pain on the right or left side, it is important to consider other factors such as muscle strain, rib issues, or even potential heart problems. I recommend consulting with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and possibly an electrocardiogram (ECG) to assess your heart's function. If the pain persists, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers like Acetaminophen (Tylenol) as needed, following the recommended dosage instructions.

I've been dealing with a heavy feeling in my chest and some chest pain for the past four months. The pain often starts on the center left side but sometimes shifts to the center right. Ive tried Gelusil a few times, but it hasnt really helped. I do pranayam and take a short walk every day. What could be causing this? What do you think I should do, and are there any specific tests you recommend?
gastritis , take pantip 40mg for 3 days

I'm a 23-year-old female, around 130 lbs, and I'm really anxious about health stuff recently, especially after reading about various symptoms. A while back, I had the flu with fever, diarrhea, and a low appetite, and though those symptoms are gone, I still feel weak and lightheaded. It got me worried about an electrolyte imbalance. I took two 150 mg doses of fluconazole for a candida infection right after my flu, and I read that's something that could affect potassium levels. Sometimes, I think I'm having heart palpitations, with my resting pulse varying from 59 to 75. It feels like my heart is either pounding or too weak at times. The lightheadedness often kicks in after I walk a lot or panic. I've been trying to up my potassium intake but can't seem to reach the 4700mg target. Do you think this could lead to a significant imbalance or even a cardiac issue?
