Avoid vitamin K–rich foods, take warfarin on schedule, and follow a consistent, heart-healthy diet.

I'm getting these weird feelings where it seems like my heart is struggling to beat at times. Sometimes, out of nowhere, I get these intense palpitations that eventually settle down, but it's really unsettling. Another thing I've noticed is that just when I'm about to burp, the palpitations get much stronger and faster, which honestly freaks me out a bit. Any idea what might be happening?
These symptoms could be related to acid reflux causing irritation of the esophagus, which in turn can trigger palpitations. I recommend trying over-the-counter antacids like Tums (500mg) or Maalox (5ml) to help with the acid reflux. Additionally, you can try avoiding trigger foods like spicy or fatty foods, caffeine, and alcohol. If the symptoms persist, it's important to consult with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm really worried about my wife. She's been feeling some pain on the left side and backside of her heart after getting her first dose of Covaxin in September 2021, and then she noticed some blood clot patches on her body. Her heart rate also suddenly increased to around 130 at one point. We saw a general physician who mentioned something about Gilbert syndrome and suggested beta blockers, specifically Metalour X25, for life. But I'm really concerned about any side effects on her or our child, especially since she's been managing everything on her own for the last two years. Are there any alternatives in Ayurveda that might work instead of lifetime medication? Would love to hear your thoughts on this!
Metalour X-25 is a brand name for Metoprolol, which is a beta blocker commonly used to treat various heart conditions, including high blood pressure and certain types of heart disease. In the case of Gilbert syndrome, beta blockers like Metoprolol can help manage symptoms such as rapid heart rate. The dosage of Metoprolol can vary depending on the individual's condition, but a common starting dose is around 25-50mg once daily. It is important to follow the dosage instructions provided by the prescribing physician. Beta blockers, including Metoprolol, are generally well-tolerated, but like any medication, they can have side effects. Common side effects may include fatigue, dizziness, and cold hands or feet. It is important to monitor for any unusual symptoms and report them to the healthcare provider. As for alternatives in Ayurveda, it is always recommended to consult with a qualified Ayurvedic practitioner for personalized recommendations. Ayurveda offers a holistic approach to health and may have alternative treatments or lifestyle recommendations to support heart health. Some Ayurvedic herbs and practices that are commonly used to support heart health include Arjuna, Ashwagandha, and stress-reducing techniques like yoga and meditation. Ultimately, the decision to take Metoprolol or explore Ayurvedic alternatives should be made in consultation with healthcare providers who are familiar with the individual's medical history and current health status.
