I'm a 75-year-old man and I'm feeling a bit worried. Back in 1977, I had a T-wave inversion and recently, I developed postural hypotension. My cardiologist checked my ECG, 2D echo, and TMT, and everything seemed normal except for the old T-wave inversion in V4, V5, and V6. He prescribed me to take Deplatt CV once a day, which I've been doing since May 2017. Lately, I've come across some pretty scary stuff about clopidogrel on the internet, and it has me feeling anxious. Could you please let me know if it's really safe for me?

View allI've been dealing with left atrium hypertrophy and costochondritis lately, and it's been quite a concern. What I'm confused about is whether it's safe for me to get back into playing football or engage in any strenuous physical activities. Could you provide some guidance on if I can safely start playing again?
It is important to consult with your healthcare provider for personalized advice, but in general, individuals with left atrium hypertrophy and costochondritis can usually continue playing football or engaging in strenuous physical activity. However, it is essential to monitor your symptoms closely and avoid activities that worsen your condition. For left atrium hypertrophy, medications like Losartan or Amlodipine may be prescribed to manage blood pressure and reduce strain on the heart. For costochondritis, over-the-counter pain relievers like Ibuprofen or Naproxen can help alleviate discomfort. Remember to follow your healthcare provider's recommendations and listen to your body during physical activity.

I've been having this strange sensation on the left side of my chest, kind of like a needle prick. I got an ECG done, and it was normal, which is a relief, but my doctor put me on Provonal Forte. I'm just wondering, could this be some kind of chest infection or maybe anxiety acting up?
The symptoms you are experiencing could be related to anxiety or nerve-related issues. Provanol forte tablet is likely prescribed to help with chest discomfort and anxiety symptoms. However, if you are still feeling needle pricking sensations in your chest, it is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can take Paracetamol for pain relief as needed.
