I'm feeling a bit worried because all my tests like ECG, echocardiography, TMT, and CT coronary angiogram came back normal, but I'm still having symptoms every day. Could it be microvascular angina or maybe spasms in my arteries, or is it something else entirely?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Based on your normal test results and everyday symptoms, it is possible that you may be experiencing microvascular angina or spasms in the arteries. In such cases, medications like Nitroglycerin sublingual tablets can be helpful in relieving symptoms. The usual dosage is 0.3 to 0.6 mg sublingually as needed. Additionally, medications like Calcium channel blockers such as Amlodipine can also be prescribed to help with vasospasms. The typical dosage for Amlodipine is 5 to 10 mg once daily. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

View allI'm taking Prolomet 25mg for my high heart rate and blood pressure and I've been on it for about a year. Sometimes when I catch a common cold, it gets hard to breathe and I take Budamet tablets. But when I talked to a pulmonologist, he said that Prolomet isnt good for long-term use because it can cause respiratory issues, and he suggested switching to OLMARK 40 instead. Does this sound right to you, or should I be concerned about making the change?
yes continue olmark 40 medication.

I had piles surgery back in 1980 and have been fine since then, but lately I've noticed bleeding when I squat. I'm also a heart patient currently on meds like Nitrocontin, Ecosprin, Ator, Dilzem SR, and Losar. Is it safe for me to take Pause 500 twice a day for this issue?
kindly visit a general surgeon for clinical examination

I've been trying to understand my recent lipid profile test results and I'm a bit confused. My triglycerides are at 192, which seems high to me. I'm vegetarian and steer clear of fast and fried foods, so I'm not sure why my triglycerides would be elevated. I exercise every day and my weight is around 70 kg with a height of 5'6". I've been taking whey protein for the past two monthscould that be causing the increase in my triglycerides? I've stopped using whey last week and am currently on Ecosprin Av 7520 for the past two days. How can I best lower my triglycerides and boost my HDL levels? Would adding omega-3 to my diet be a good idea? I'd appreciate any suggestions.
Triglyceride level of 192 mgdL is slightly above the normal range (normal range is less than 150 mgdL), but it is controllable. It's good that you are already taking steps to address this issue. Whey protein can sometimes lead to increased triglyceride levels in some individuals, so stopping its intake was a good decision. To lower triglycerides and increase HDL, you can consider adding Omega-3 fatty acids to your diet. Omega-3 fatty acids, found in fish oil supplements or fatty fish like salmon, have been shown to help lower triglyceride levels and improve HDL cholesterol. You can try brands like Lovaza or Vascepa, with a dosage of around 1-4 grams per day, as recommended by your healthcare provider. In addition to Omega-3 supplements, maintaining a healthy diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins, along with regular exercise, can also help improve your lipid profile. It's important to continue monitoring your levels and follow up with your healthcare provider for further guidance and adjustments to your treatment plan.
