I'm really concerned about my 75-year-old mother-in-law who has a pacemaker and had to stop using her hearing aid. Her cardiologist mentioned that the electromagnetic signals could mess with the pacemaker. I'm wondering if it's possible for her to use both if we keep the hearing aid battery more than 6 inches away from the pacemaker. If so, what kind of hearing aid would you recommend in this situation? Would love your advice on this.

View allI'm feeling a bit worried and could use some advice. My cardiologist recently told me to take Ecosprin AV 7520 every evening. Meanwhile, my diabetologist has put me on Ator 10 at night along with Metsmall 500 SR and Semi Reclimet. Is it safe to be on both Atocor and Ecosprin at the same time? Is there something I should be looking out for or any side effects I should be aware of?
There is no harm in taking both Ator 10 (Atorvastatin) and Ecosprin AV 7520 (Aspirin + Atorvastatin) together as prescribed by your cardiologist and diabetologist. Ator 10 is a brand name for Atorvastatin, which is a statin used to lower cholesterol levels, while Ecosprin AV 7520 contains Aspirin and Atorvastatin, which helps in preventing blood clots and reducing cholesterol. Just make sure to follow the prescribed dosages: Ecosprin AV 7520 daily in the evening and Ator 10 at night along with Metsmall 500 SR and Semi Reclimet.

I'm really worried because my heart rate has been staying between 100 and 130 for the past three months. Just a few days ago, I started feeling pain in my chest and arm. What should I do?
Your symptoms of a persistently high heart rate along with chest and arm pain are concerning for a possible cardiac issue. It is important to seek immediate medical attention for further evaluation and treatment. In the meantime, you can take Aspirin 325mg immediately to help reduce the risk of blood clot formation.

I'm 24 and have been doing endurance training for the last four years. Recently, I found out I have a mitral prolapse after visiting a cardiologist because of an irregular pulse. The doctor said my heart rate is normal based on the Holter Monitoring Test and told me to avoid heavy activities but didn't prescribe any meds. I've been asked to do a 2D Echo test yearly. Given my background in fitness, I'm curious if it's okay for me to keep up with moderate levels of running and cycling. What do you think?
It is important to follow the advice of your cardiologist to avoid putting strain on your heart. However, you can continue with moderate levels of Running and Cycling. To support your heart health, you can take a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol at a low dose as prescribed by your doctor. This medication can help regulate your heart rate and reduce the strain on your heart during physical activities. Remember to have regular follow-ups with your cardiologist and monitor your heart health closely.
