Respect sir, Ive been dealing with the effects of the second wave of COVID and was on steroids. Im a bit on the heavier side, weighing 140 kgs, and I have a fear of heart issues. While I dont have any diagnosed heart problems, I get really anxious whenever I see stuff about heart issues on TV or my phone. Sometimes I experience pain in my right hand, and although my ECG results are normal, it worries me. Should I be considering a TMT test, or is there another test I should look into for peace of mind?

Based on your symptoms and concerns, it would be advisable for you to undergo a TMT (Treadmill Stress Test) to assess your heart's function and detect any potential issues related to your chest pain and fear of heart problems. Additionally, considering your weight and fibromyalgia condition, it would be beneficial to consult with a healthcare provider for a comprehensive evaluation and personalized treatment plan.

I'm wondering if it's okay to stop taking ecospirin 75 after recovering from COVID. Is there a recommended time to keep taking it if I only had mild symptoms? And what happens if I stop using it after a month? Could there be any side effects from stopping it so soon?

Ecospirin 75 is a brand name for aspirin. Aspirin is often prescribed post-Covid recovery to prevent blood clots. The duration for taking aspirin post-Covid recovery varies depending on individual risk factors and the severity of the illness. It is important to follow your healthcare provider's recommendations regarding the duration of aspirin therapy. Stopping aspirin abruptly after 1 month of Covid recovery may increase the risk of blood clots, especially if you were prescribed aspirin for this purpose. It is important to consult with your healthcare provider before discontinuing any medication, including aspirin, to avoid any potential side effects or complications.

I was recently prescribed concor cor 2.5 for my blood pressure, which is 13090, and I have a heart rate of 113. Since I'm always on the go and sometimes end up skipping breakfast, I'm wondering if it's okay to take this medication on an empty stomach. Is that safe, or should I make sure to eat something first?

Concor Cor 2.5 is a brand name for Bisoprolol, which is a beta-blocker used to treat high blood pressure and heart conditions. It is generally recommended to take Bisoprolol with food to help with absorption and reduce the risk of stomach upset. If you often skip breakfast, you can take your dose with a light snack or a small meal to minimize any potential stomach discomfort. It is important to take the medication as prescribed by your doctor.
