I'm dealing with chest pain and heaviness for about 2 years now, and Montair FX helps, but if I stop taking it, the symptoms come right back. Plus, I get side effects like stomach gas from it. What should I do? Is there a way to stop using Montair FX, or maybe there's another option I can consider?

View allI've been on Tazloc Beta 25 for about 3 years now, and I've noticed something odd with my liver function tests. I've had them done three times during this period, and each time my total bilirubin levels have been between 1.33 and 1.45. Before I started taking the BP pills, my liver tests were always normal. Do you think the medication could be affecting my liver, or could there be another reason for this change? I haven't noticed any liver-related symptoms, but it's a bit concerning. Could you shed some light on this?
The medication Tazloc Beta 25 contains Telmisartan and Metoprolol, which are commonly used to treat high blood pressure. While these medications are generally well-tolerated, they can rarely cause liver enzyme abnormalities in some individuals. Since your total bilirubin levels have been elevated since starting the medication, it is possible that Tazloc Beta 25 may be contributing to this change in your LFT results. I recommend discussing this with your healthcare provider to evaluate the need for further investigation or potential adjustment of your medication.

I'm just trying to understand what the next steps are for my treatment based on my recent test results. I'm a 62-year-old woman and my 2D Echo Report shows Mild LVH and Mild diastolic dysfunction, with an LVEF at rest of 50. Thankfully, there are no regional wall motion abnormalities, and my RV contractile function is adequate. The report also notes no pulmonary hypertension or pericardial effusion, and no intracardiac clot or vegetation. My chest X-ray mentions a mild unfolding of the aorta but no pluroparenchymal abnormality. Should I be worried about any of these findings, and what kind of treatment might be necessary?

I'm a bit concerned about getting the COVID vaccine because I had angioplasty about a decade ago and have been taking ecospirin tablets since then. I've heard that the vaccine might be risky for people with a history of blood clots. Could you please shed some light on whether it's safe for someone like me?
It is generally safe for patients who have had angioplasty and are taking ecospirin (aspirin) to receive the Covid vaccine. The benefits of getting vaccinated against Covid-19 outweigh the risks, especially in individuals with a history of heart disease. However, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider before getting vaccinated to ensure it is safe for your specific medical condition.
