Question 1

I've been dealing with this nose bleeding issue for years, but after I started taking clopilet, it just seemed to get worse. At first, I was on the 150mg dose with my other meds like ecospirin, but when the bleeding got out of hand, I reduced to 75mg, and still no improvement. I even saw an ENT specialist who gave me a calcium supplement for a bit, but I'm still bleeding. Could the clopilet be causing this, and what else can I do to manage it? I'm kind of stuck here and really need some advice.

Accepted Answer

The nose bleeding may be due to the antiplatelet medication Clopilet. Since the bleeding continued even after reducing the dosage, it is important to address this issue. I would recommend discussing with your doctor about switching to an alternative antiplatelet medication such as Brilinta (Ticagrelor) or Plavix (Clopidogrel) to see if the nose bleeding improves. Additionally, continue taking Ecospirin as prescribed. If the bleeding persists, further evaluation may be needed to determine the underlying cause of the nose bleeds.

Question 2

I'm a bit concerned because I've been experiencing this clicking sound in my chest with every heartbeat, especially when lying down. It's actually loud enough that other people can hear it too. Could it be related to the small hole in my heart that's currently closing? I'm really not sure what's going on, and its got me kind of worried. What do you think this might be?

Accepted Answer

ecg and cardiac markers are advised to the pt.

Question 3

I'm trying to figure out what's going on with this persistent chest pain. I did a TMT on May 25 as advised by my doctor, and it turned out negative, but the pain in the middle of my chest just won't go away. I dont smoke or drink and there's no family history of heart disease. I've been dealing with asthma for the last two years. The pain doesn't increase when I walk or run, but it's really starting to make me anxious and it's even affecting my sleep. What can I do to alleviate this pain?

Accepted Answer

As per your description, it seems like you are experiencing chest pain despite a negative TMT result. Since you have a history of asthma and the pain is not worsening with physical activity, it may not be directly related to your heart. To help alleviate the chest pain and manage your anxiety, you can take over-the-counter pain relief medication like paracetamol (e.g., Tylenol) at a dose of 500mg to 1000mg every 4-6 hours as needed. Additionally, you can try using a heating pad on the area of discomfort and practice relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises or meditation to help with your anxiety and improve sleep. If the chest pain persists or worsens, it is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.
