View allI'm really worried because my triglycerides are at 471. I'm concerned if this could be a sign of heart disease. I tried using fibrates to help with it, but then my creatine levels went up. What should I do now? Any advice would be really helpful.
Since fibrates caused an increase in your creatinine levels, you may consider using statins such as Atorvastatin at a low dose to help lower your triglycerides. The usual starting dose for Atorvastatin is 10-20 mg once daily. However, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider for proper monitoring and adjustment of your medication regimen.

I'm traveling right now, and I'm a bit worried because my pulse rate is over 90. I've already taken Kipnor TR 40 and Etilaam 0.25. Is this normal for when you're active, or should I be concerned?
The normal pulse rate when you are active can vary depending on individual factors, but typically ranges from 100 to 170 beats per minute. Kipno tr 40 is a brand name for Metoprolol, which is a beta-blocker used to treat high blood pressure and chest pain. Etilaam 0.25 is a brand name for Etizolam, which is a benzodiazepine used to treat anxiety and sleep disorders. Since your pulse rate is above 90 after taking these medications, it is important to monitor your heart rate closely. If your pulse rate remains elevated or if you experience any concerning symptoms, please seek medical attention promptly.

I'm really worried because I've been dealing with an irregular heartbeat pretty much all the time for the last 23 years. What could be causing this?
Irregular heartbeats can be caused by various underlying conditions. In your case, since you have been experiencing this issue for the past 2-3 years, it is important to consult a cardiologist for a proper evaluation and diagnosis. However, one common medication that is often prescribed for irregular heartbeats is Metoprolol (brand name: Lopressor). The usual starting dose for Metoprolol in cases of irregular heartbeats is 25-100 mg per day, taken orally. This medication helps to regulate the heart rate and rhythm. Regular follow-up with a cardiologist is essential to monitor your condition and adjust the treatment plan as needed.
