I recently got over Covid, testing negative on May 5th, 2021. Now, I've started experiencing some post-Covid symptoms like shortness of breath and a faster heartbeat. I had a Lipid Profile test done, and it turns out my cholesterol levels are high. I'm feeling a bit better now, but my doctor suggested I take some meds like Anleo DSR, Korandil 5, Montek AB, Vitoxy Plus, and Rozavel A for a month. Is it safe for me to get the Covid vaccine while I'm still on these medications?

View allI'm feeling concerned because my heart has been pumping really fast for a while before calming down to normal. When it speeds up, it feels like it's going to jump out of my chest. What could be causing this, and should I be worried?
It sounds like you may be experiencing episodes of palpitations. Palpitations are sensations of a rapid or irregular heartbeat. One common cause of palpitations is atrial fibrillation, where the heart beats irregularly and often rapidly. It is important to consult a doctor for proper evaluation and management. In the meantime, you can try taking a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol (brand name: Lopressor) to help slow down your heart rate. The usual starting dose for Metoprolol is 25-50 mg twice daily. However, please consult a doctor before starting any new medication.

I'm really worried about my health. I've been dealing with chest discomfort, gastric issues, and health anxiety for the last two years. Last year, I went through several tests like ECG, echo, TMT, blood tests, and even checked troponin levels twice, but everything came back normal. I also had deficiencies in vitamin D and B12, for which I took injections and tablets. Now, for the past two weeks, I've been feeling that high gastric indigestion and chest discomfort again. Yesterday, I did another ECG, and it showed a slight ST depression in V5, but I was really anxious at the time. Could this be just anxiety, or is there something serious going on? I'm really concerned about this.
It's good to know that your previous cardiac tests and blood work have come back normal. Based on the symptoms you have described and the slight ST Depression in V5 on your recent ECG, it is important to consider both physical and psychological factors. The chest discomfort and gastric indigestion could be related to your anxiety, but it is also important to rule out any potential cardiac issues. I would recommend starting with a medication like omeprazole 20mg once daily for your gastric issues. Additionally, for anxiety, you can try taking a medication like escitalopram 10mg once daily. However, it is crucial to follow up with a cardiologist for a thorough evaluation and to discuss the ECG findings. They may recommend further tests or adjustments to your treatment plan. It's also important to continue managing your anxiety through relaxation techniques, regular exercise, and counseling support. Please continue to monitor your symptoms and seek medical attention if they worsen or if you experience any new concerning symptoms

I've been prescribed Biotor tablet 10 instead of Clavix and Atorlip, and my doctor mentioned it has Ecospirin in it. But when I looked it up online, it seems like it only contains atorvastatin. I'm really confused nowdoes Biotor tablet 10 actually have Ecospirin too?
No it does not contain aspirin.
