I'm really worried about this heart murmur that was detected during my TB treatment. I completed 9 months of medication, and an echo test came back normal. But the heart murmur is still being detected. Could the TB meds be causing this? It all started when I began taking them. What should I do?

View allSo, my dad had blood clots a couple of months ago, but after being treated in the hospital hes doing fine now. Recently, his CT pulmonary angiogram came back normal, which is great. The pulmonologist said he should take Eliquis 5 mg for life. But I noticed that Apigat 5 has the same ingredient, Apixaban 5 mg. Can he take Apigat 5 instead of Eliquis 5? I've attached details for both meds.
yes you can use ,as they have same content

Im 24 and use a fitness tracker every day to monitor my sleep and activity. Ive noticed my heart rate is usually over 80 BPM, except when Im asleep. Whats the ideal BPM I should aim for, and how can I manage it better?
The ideal resting heart rate for adults is generally between 60-100 beats per minute (BPM). Since your BPM is consistently above 80, it may indicate that you have a higher resting heart rate. To help keep your heart rate in control, you can try incorporating regular exercise, maintaining a healthy weight, managing stress levels, and avoiding stimulants like caffeine and nicotine. If you continue to have concerns about your heart rate, you may consider consulting with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and guidance.

My dad just had a 2D Echo after his ECG showed an irregular heartbeat, and I'm a bit worried. The report mentions grade 2 Diastolic Dysfunction and says something about an aortic valve being sclerotic. How serious is this? He's been feeling really weak and lethargic lately. What can we do to help him feel better?
