I'm a 67-year-old who's been taking Revelol XL 50, but my blood pressure numbers always seem to hang around 15090. I've decided to switch to Concor 5 in hopes of getting them down to 12080. Is this a good move, and could you explain what I might expect during this transition?
More Cardiology Health Queries
View allI've just had my routine check-up and my ECG results showed something called T wave inversion in the inferior leads. I'm a 34-year-old guy, pretty healthy overall, and I don't smoke or drink. Should I be worried about this? Is it something serious?
This finding can sometimes be a normal variant, especially in young healthy individuals like yourself who do not have any symptoms or risk factors such as smoking or drinking. However, it can also be associated with certain heart conditions. I recommend consulting with a cardiologist for further evaluation and monitoring. If no other concerning symptoms are present, no treatment may be necessary at this time.

I've had a coronary angiogram back in 2011, and my doctor advised me to take aspirin for the rest of my life. I'm a bit concerned and just want to know if this is really safe. Also, can you tell me what side effects I might experience? And is it okay to take aspirin during my monthly periods?
Aspirin is commonly prescribed for long-term use in patients with a history of coronary artery disease. It helps to prevent blood clots and reduce the risk of heart attacks and strokes. The common side effects of aspirin include stomach irritation, ulcers, and increased risk of bleeding. It is generally safe to take aspirin during monthly periods, but it is always recommended to consult with your doctor for personalized advice. The recommended dosage for aspirin for heart health is usually low dose, around 75-100mg per day. Please follow your doctor's advice regarding the dosage and frequency of taking aspirin.
