I'm currently taking Olmezest 40, but it's getting really pricey. Should I switch to Olmetime 40 instead? What's the difference between the two?

I'm experiencing this sharp, pin-like pain in my chest and back. It was really bad in January, but now it's not as intense, just feels like pins. I had my ECG done and everything came back normal. Can you tell me what precautions I should take?

Given your symptoms of pin-like pain in the chest and back, and a normal ECG, consider consulting a cardiologist to rule out conditions like pericarditis, costochondritis, or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD); in the meantime, avoid heavy lifting, maintain a healthy weight, manage stress, and avoid triggers like spicy or fatty foods that can exacerbate symptoms.

I'm feeling really concerned because my sister has been diagnosed with RBBB after an ECG, and her vitamin B12 levels are only 128. I've heard about rejunex 1500 injections and was wondering if it would be okay for her to take that. Is it safe for someone with her condition?

Rejunex 1500 injection contains Methylcobalamin which is a form of Vitamin B12. It is commonly used to treat Vitamin B12 deficiency. In this case, since your sister has a low Vitamin B12 level of 128, you can give her Rejunex 1500 injection. The usual dosage for Vitamin B12 deficiency is 1000-1500 mcg injected intramuscularly once daily for 1 week, then once weekly for 4 weeks, and then once monthly. Please consult with a healthcare professional for the appropriate dosage and administration schedule for your sister's specific condition.

I'm really concerned about my blood pressure. I take Telma 20 every day, but it's still high at 150100. If I eat out, it shoots up to around 170110. What can I do to bring it down to normal levels?

Increasing Height After 24 _Genetic Limitations_ 1. _Height determined by genetics_: Height is largely determined by genetics, making it challenging to significantly increase height after a certain age. 2. _Growth plates closure_: Growth plates in the bones typically close by the early 20s, limiting further growth. _Exercise and Healthy Alternatives_ 1. _Stretching and exercise_: Certain exercises, like yoga, Pilates, or stretching, can help improve posture, making you appear taller. 2. _Hanging exercises_: Hanging exercises, like pull-ups or hanging leg raises, can help stretch the spine, potentially increasing height by a small amount (0.5-1 inch). 3. _Good posture and core strength_: Maintaining good posture and core strength can also help you appear taller. _Supplements and Alternative Methods_ 1. _No proven supplements_: There are no scientifically proven supplements that can significantly increase height after 24. 2. _Avoid unproven methods_: Be cautious of unproven methods, like height-increasing pills or devices, as they may be ineffective or even harmful. _Realistic Expectations_ 1. _Small increases possible_: While it's unlikely to increase height by 2-4 inches, you may be able to achieve a small increase (0.5-1 inch) through exercise and good posture. 2. _Focus on overall health_: Prioritize overall health and wellness, rather than focusing solely on increasing height.
