Question 1

Question 2

I'm currently taking 4mg of Acitrom because I had an AVR procedure. My doctor suggested adding Ecosprin 150 mg, but since Ecosprin is also a blood thinner, I'm feeling a bit uncertain about taking both. Could I be at risk for any complications, or is this combination really safe?

Accepted Answer

Taking Ecosprin 150 mg along with acitrom can increase the risk of bleeding due to their combined blood-thinning effects. It is important to follow your doctor's advice, but if you have concerns, it is best to discuss them with your doctor.

Question 3

I'm having these frequent chest pains, and it's really stressing me out and leading to panic attacks. I went ahead and got a CT coronary angiography done, and the report came back saying my arteries are normal. Can I relax now and assume there aren't any heart-related issues, or is there something else I should be considering?

Accepted Answer

Hi, since your CT coronary angiography shows normal arteries, it is generally safe to assume that there are no significant heart-related issues causing your chest pain. However, it is always important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and to discuss any other possible causes for your symptoms.
