I'm getting palpitations after just one drink of alcohol and my ECG results show something about a QRST contour abnormality and possible inferior myocardial damage. What should I do about this?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Based on your symptoms and ECG findings, it is important to avoid alcohol consumption. You should also consider taking medications such as Metoprolol (25-50mg) to help control your palpitations and protect your heart. Additionally, you may benefit from medications like Aspirin (75-150mg) to reduce the risk of further myocardial damage. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

View allI'm really worried because my echo showed mild TR, and I've been stressed ever since. Googling it made things worse, and now it's all I can think about. Lately, I have this constant chest pain and am terrified of a heart attack. It's making my life unbearable. What should I do?
It sounds like you are experiencing a lot of anxiety and stress related to your health concerns. To help manage your symptoms, I recommend starting with lifestyle changes such as regular exercise, stress management techniques, and a healthy diet. Additionally, you can take medication such as anxiolytics like Xanax (alprazolam) 0.25mg to help with your anxiety symptoms.

I'm a bit worried about my mom's injection. She just had CABG surgery, and the doctor prescribed Tazact 4.5 gm. We assumed it would be your regular kind of injection, but it turned out to be powder. We also got a saline bottle with sodium chloride injection IP 0.9 WV and a syringe. How do clinics prepare this injection with these items? I want to make sure we're doing it right for my mom.
To prepare the Tazact 4.5 gm injection, you will first need to reconstitute the powder with the provided saline solution. Start by washing your hands thoroughly and then clean the rubber stoppers of both the Tazact powder vial and the saline bottle with an alcohol swab. Next, use a syringe to withdraw the entire contents of the saline bottle and inject it into the Tazact powder vial. Gently swirl the vial to ensure the powder is completely dissolved. Avoid shaking the vial vigorously as it may affect the effectiveness of the medication. Once the powder is fully dissolved, withdraw the reconstituted solution back into the syringe. Your Tazact 4.5 gm injection is now ready for administration. Remember to follow your doctor's instructions carefully regarding dosage and administration schedule.

My dad's been dealing with high blood pressure for about five years now, and he's been taking CILACAR 5 MG every day. For the last couple of days, his BP has been at 10050. Should he keep taking his medication or do we need to make any changes because of this?
A blood pressure reading of 10050 is considered low and may be a cause for concern, especially if your father is experiencing symptoms such as dizziness, lightheadedness, or fainting. In this situation, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional before making any changes to medication. However, if your father is not experiencing any symptoms, he can skip the dose of CILACAR - 5 MG for that day. It is important to monitor his blood pressure regularly and consult with his doctor for further guidance.
