I'm feeling some discomfort in a few spots on both sides of my chest. My HDL cholesterol is low, and I recently had a mildly positive TMT test. What do you think could be going on, and is there anything I should do?

I'm a bit concerned because I had a PTCA procedure about 14 months ago. Now, my doctor is suggesting I stop taking Axcer 90 mg twice daily for 5 days and just stick with Ecosprin 75 mg once a day. This is supposed to be for a CT-guided biopsy because I've got multiple lymph nodes in my abdomen. Is this safe, and should I be worried about any risks with stopping Axcer?

yes.

I had a CABG surgery back in 2006, and I've been on a bunch of medications since then, like Ecosprin Gold 20mg, Nebicard 2.5mg, Gelam AM 40mg, Nikoran 10, and Nitrocontin 6.4. Is it alright for me to take Nikoran and Nitrocontin at the same time?

Continue all the medications..
