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?

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.

I've been dealing with blood pressure issues for about a year now. Initially, I was on S Numlo, but I had to stop because it caused swelling in my legs. Then, I switched to Eritel 40 mg for a few months, and now I've been taking Eritel 20 mg for the past couple of months. My main concern is that I've been gaining weight since my blood pressure diagnosis, and I'm worried it might be because of the Eritel tablets. Do you think the medication could be causing the weight gain?

Weight gain is a common side effect of certain blood pressure medications, including Eritel (Metoprolol); consider discussing alternative medications or adjusting your dosage with your doctor, and in the meantime, focus on a healthy lifestyle, including a balanced diet, regular exercise (aiming for 150 minutesweek), and stress management techniques to help manage weight and blood pressure.
