Question 1

I'm really confused right now. I went to a hospital because I was having some gastric problems, and the doctor there did a troponin test that came back positive at 0.03. Then, when I spoke to my family doctor, he suggested getting a second opinion, which I did at MMM. They said the results were negative. I'm stuck in this weird spot of not knowing what to believe or trust. Could you help me figure out what to do next?

Accepted Answer

It seems there is a discrepancy in the troponin test results between the two hospitals. Since the second opinion from MMM hospital came out as negative, it would be advisable to follow that result. In the case of gastric issues, you can take medications like Omeprazole (brand name: Prilosec) 20mg twice daily before meals for acid reflux. Additionally, you can take Simethicone (brand name: Gas-X) 125mg as needed for gas and bloating. Make sure to follow up with your family doctor for further guidance and monitoring of your gastric problem.

Accepted Answer

Your blood pressure of 13090 is slightly elevated, which may be causing the symptoms you are experiencing. The sensation of feeling your heartbeat in your head and shaky hands could be due to increased blood pressure. I would recommend starting with lifestyle modifications such as regular exercise, a healthy diet low in sodium, and stress management techniques. In terms of medication, you can consider starting with a low-dose of a medication like Amlodipine 5mg once daily to help lower your blood pressure. However, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new medication.
