Hey, I went to the hospital today because I've been having really bad chest pain from my GERD. They gave me a Pan injection, but the pain hasnt gone away. The doctor said I should get an ECG done and talk to a cardiologist. But I couldnt see one because of some financial issues, so I had to go home instead. Can someone please look at my ECG report and let me know if everything seems alright or if there's something wrong?

If you are experiencing severe chest pain due to GERD, you can try taking Omeprazole (20mg) once a day before breakfast for relief. Additionally, you can take Antacid syrup like Gelusil after meals for immediate relief from acidity. Make sure to follow up with a cardiologist as advised by your doctor for further evaluation of your chest pain.

I'm really worried about my dad, he's 53 and just had a CABG bypass surgery. I noticed his platelet count shot up quite a bit, like it was 3.9 lakhs before surgery and now it's 9.3 lakhs, and Im concerned about whether thats normal after surgery. There wasn't any blood transfusion done. Can someone shed some light on what might be happening here?

It is not uncommon for platelet counts to be elevated after surgery, including coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). This condition, known as postoperative thrombocytosis, typically occurs as a response to surgery and the body's healing process. However, a significant increase such as from 3.9 lakhs to 9.3 lakhs should be monitored closely by his healthcare team to rule out any complications. I recommend discussing this with your father's cardiologist or primary care physician to ensure proper follow-up and management.

So, my dad had an angioplasty done on October 20th, and while he's getting better, he's been dealing with toothache, something he had before. I'm wondering if he could take a becosule tablet for that. Would that be safe, or might it cause any issues with his heart condition?

Becosule tablet is a multivitamin supplement that contains Vitamin B complex. It is generally safe to take after angioplasty, as Vitamin B complex is important for overall health and well-being. However, it is always best to consult with your father's cardiologist before starting any new medication, including over-the-counter supplements, to ensure there are no potential interactions with his current medications or health condition. If the cardiologist approves, the usual dosage of Becosule tablet for adults is one tablet once daily.
