I had an angioplasty on February 14th, and they did it through my right arm. It's still hurting, and I can't stretch it properly. I've taken painkillers, but the pain just wont go away. What can I do about this?

Its common to experience pain and discomfort in the arm after an angioplasty, especially if the procedure was done through the arm. I recommend following up with your doctor to ensure there are no complications. In the meantime, gentle stretching and using a warm compress might help ease the pain.

I'm worried because my cardiologist told me to take Met XL 25 for my fast heart rate, but I accidentally bought Met XL 50 instead and took it this morning. Will taking the 50 mg dose be harmful to my health? Can you help me understand if I should be concerned?

taking Met XL 50 instead of Met XL 25 once should not cause significant harm to your health. However, it is important to stick to the prescribed dosage for optimal treatment. I recommend informing your cardiologist about the mix-up and following their guidance on whether to continue with Met XL 50 or switch back to Met XL 25 at the correct dosage.

I'm really stressed out because, for the past six months, I've been dealing with these panic attacks that make me super anxious. I'm a 28-year-old guy and generally healthy. A few days back, I saw a doctor who recommended I get an echocardiogram and some blood tests like CBC, creatinine, and RBS. When I went in for the Echo, I was really scared, and my heart was racing due to my phobia. The results came back mostly normal, except they mentioned something about TR mild with mild PAH. Should I be worried about this leading to complications? And what can I do to treat it?

I've noticed lately that my heart starts pounding really hard, like when I get up from sitting down. Also, I've been dealing with some acidity and constipation issues. My doctor prescribed me rabeprazole, but my ECG showed a heart rate of 112, which seems quite high. Could you help me figure out what's going on with this high heart rate?
