I'm experiencing this left hand cramp and chest pain that comes and goes, and it's been joined by this left arm pain for about eight days now. I went for an ECG yesterday, and they said everything looked normal, though my heart rate was up a bitapparently due to stress. I actually had a similar hand cramp about a month ago. Should I be concerned or look into other causes for these symptoms?

Based on your symptoms of left hand cramp, chest pain, and left arm pain, along with a normal ECG result and slightly elevated heart rate possibly due to stress, it is important to consider muscle relaxants and pain relievers. You can take acetaminophen 500mg for pain relief and muscle relaxation. Additionally, you can use a muscle relaxant like cyclobenzaprine 5mg to help with the hand cramp. It is important to take these medications as directed on the packaging or as advised by a healthcare professional

I'm 24 and I've been noticing my heart rate is usually under 60 beats a minute. Should I be worried about this, or is it normal? I weigh 120kg, and I'm 5'10". Also, I was diagnosed with GERD a few weeks back and have been on medication for it. Is it okay for my resting heart rate to be in the 50s?
A resting heart rate below 60 beats per minute is known as bradycardia. In your case, with a history of GERD and being on medication, it is important to consider the overall clinical picture. However, in general, a heart rate in the 50s can be normal for some individuals, especially those who are physically fit. Given your weight and height, it would be advisable to monitor your heart rate regularly and consult with your healthcare provider if you experience any symptoms such as dizziness, fainting, chest pain, or shortness of breath. It is important to ensure that your GERD medication is not causing any adverse effects on your heart rate.

Could you help me understand the difference between ROSUVAS CV 10 and ROSUVAS CV 20? I'm wondering if it would be okay to take half a tablet of ROSUVAS CV 20 instead of a full tablet of ROSUVAS CV 10 each day?
ROSUVAS CV 10 and ROSUVAS CV 20 both contain Rosuvastatin and Clopidogrel. The difference lies in the strength of the active ingredients. ROSUVAS CV 10 contains 10mg of Rosuvastatin and 75mg of Clopidogrel, while ROSUVAS CV 20 contains 20mg of Rosuvastatin and 75mg of Clopidogrel. Taking half a tablet of ROSUVAS CV 20 (which contains 20mg of Rosuvastatin) is not equivalent to taking one tablet of ROSUVAS CV 10 (which contains 10mg of Rosuvastatin). It is important to follow the prescribed dosage as recommended by your healthcare provider. If you have any concerns about your medication regimen, please consult with your healthcare provider for personalized advice.
