I'm having this pain in my left leg that's been bothering me for about 15 days now. I'm 84 and have a history of heart issues, so I'm regularly on medications like Ecospirin, Amlokind for my blood pressure, and some others like Nitrolong and Losar, though I've recently stopped taking Renozex. The pain hits me when I walk. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

I had a peg of whiskey around 7 PM after not drinking for a while, and now I'm due to take my metocard xl 25. I'm a bit concerned about whether it's safe to take it right now. Can you advise on this?
It is not recommended to take metocard xl 25 (Metoprolol) after consuming alcohol, as it can increase the risk of side effects such as dizziness, lightheadedness, and fainting. It is best to wait at least 24 hours after consuming alcohol before taking metocard xl 25.

I'm a bit concerned about my recent full body check-up results. My hs-CRP level came back as 16.35, and I'm not sure what that means. Is this something I should be worried about? What could this high reading indicate in terms of my health? Would really appreciate some guidance.
Hs CRP reading of 16.35 indicates a high sensitivity C-reactive protein level in your blood. This marker is often used to assess inflammation in the body. A level above 10 mgL is considered high and may indicate inflammation due to various reasons such as infection, autoimmune disorders, or chronic diseases. It is important to further evaluate the underlying cause of this elevated level.
