I'm 23 and had some tests done recently where my ECG and ECHO came back normal, but my QRS duration was 98ms. I'm kind of worried about whether this might have any implications for my health in the future. Can you explain if this is something I should be concerned about?

QRS duration of 98ms is considered to be within normal limits for adults. It is unlikely to cause any issues in the future. No specific treatment is needed for this. Just continue to follow up with your healthcare provider for routine check-ups.

I'm trying to find a 7.5 mg tablet of Warf for my brother but no pharmacy seems to have it. Is it okay if he takes a 5 mg and a 2 mg tablet together instead? I'm not sure what to do, and it's a bit worrying. Can you help?

I'm 29 years old and I've been dealing with chest pain for the past week. My blood pressure is under control now, but the initial ECG was abnormal. We did a 2D echo and that came back normal. I've been prescribed medications like Nico Star, Angiplan 2.5, and Plevix. I feel like I'm too young for this kind of medication. Could you guide me on what I should do next?

It sounds like you are experiencing chest pain and have been prescribed medications for it. The medications you mentioned are: - Nico Star (Nicorandil) 2.5mg: This medication helps to widen the blood vessels and improve blood flow to the heart. The usual dose is 2.5mg twice daily. - Angiplan (Amlodipine) : This medication is used to treat high blood pressure and chest pain (angina). The usual dose is 5mg once daily. - Plavix (Clopidogrel): This medication helps to prevent blood clots. The usual dose is 75mg once daily. It is important to follow your doctor's advice and continue taking the medications as prescribed. These medications are commonly used to manage chest pain and other heart conditions, regardless of age. If you have any concerns about the medications or their side effects, please discuss them with your healthcare provider.
