Question 2

I've just had an angioplasty because of a heart attack, and I'm a bit anxious about when I can start driving my scooter again. Also, Im curious about what kinds of exercise I can safely do now. I used to love swimming before the heart attack, and I'm...

Accepted Answer

After angioplasty for MI, it is generally recommended to wait at least 1-2 weeks before driving a two-wheeler. As for exercise, you can start with light activities such as walking and gradually increase to moderate intensity exercises like cycling or jogging. Swimming can also be resumed, but it is important to start slowly and gradually increase the intensity. Remember to consult with your healthcare provider for personalized recommendations based on your individual recovery progress.

Question 3

I've been experiencing this odd sensation, like a bubble of air in my heart beat, since last Tuesday. I don't have any pain or tiredness, but it's concerning me. Should I be worried or get it checked out? What could this be?

Accepted Answer

Feeling like air bubbles in your heartbeat could be due to palpitations. It is important to monitor your symptoms and consult a doctor for proper evaluation. In the meantime, you can try taking Tab Metoprolol 25mg once daily to help with any irregular heartbeats.

Question 4

I've been taking a tablet every day for my blood pressure, and now my doctor has also prescribed stemetil MD 5 mg twice a day for 5 days. I'm just wondering if there are any interactions or side effects I should be aware of with this combination?

Accepted Answer

Stemetil MD 5mg, containing prochlorperazine, is typically prescribed for nausea, vomiting, and vertigo, and taking it twice daily for 5 days is likely intended to address a specific symptom or condition, such as migraines or inner ear disturbances, rather than directly affecting your blood pressure management.

"Based on your symptoms and the normal ECG and 2D Echo results, as well as the evaluation by a pulmonologist, it is less likely that your symptoms are due to a heart issue or a pulmonary problem. It is possible that your symptoms could be related to orthostatic hypotension, which is a drop in blood pressure that occurs when standing up from a sitting or lying down position. To help alleviate these symptoms, you can try increasing your fluid and salt intake, wearing compression stockings, and standing up slowly to allow your body to adjust to the change in position. In some cases, medications like Fludrocortisone or Midodrine may be prescribed to help manage orthostatic hypotension. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it would be advisable to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management."

Question 6

I've been dealing with some issues since I was diagnosed with a kidney stone about 10 days ago. I took Tamsin medicine on the night of January 28th, and the next morning, I fainted and had really low blood pressure, like 9060. Since then, my systolic...

Accepted Answer

It seems like you may have experienced a side effect from the Tamsulosin medication, which is commonly used for kidney stones but can sometimes cause low blood pressure and dizziness. Since you have already stopped the Tamsulosin, but are still experiencing high blood pressure and numbness in your arms, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, you can try to manage your blood pressure by making lifestyle changes such as reducing salt intake, exercising regularly, and managing stress. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please seek medical attention promptly.
