I'm really worried about some recent health reports I've got. My TSH levels were high at 10.3, so my doctor increased my thyroid medication from 100mg to 125mg. Then after about 25 days, my TSH dropped to 0.70, and I was advised to cut down the medication to 75mg. I'm also confused because my TMT test came back positive for inducible myocardial ischemia, but my ECG and echocardiography were normal. The doctor is now suggesting I go for an angiogram. I'm really anxious about whether these thyroid level changes could be affecting my TMT results. Should I be rushing into getting the angiogram, and is there a real chance of having heart issues even though the ECG and echo were normal? Any advice would be really appreciated.

View allI'm worried because my heart rate is always above 90, even when I'm just relaxing. I've had Eclampsia with a high heart rate and blood pressure before, and my doctor prescribed Ivabrad 5 mg. They mentioned I could stop taking it after a month. I've got a month's supply left, and I'm wondering if I can keep taking Ivabrad to help with my heart health. Is that a good idea?
Ivabradine 5 mg is a medication commonly used to lower heart rate in certain heart conditions. Since you were prescribed this medication for a specific reason and advised to stop after a month, it is important to follow your healthcare provider's instructions. If you have remaining tablets and are concerned about your heart health, you can continue taking ivabradine as prescribed until you finish the course. However, it is recommended to consult with your doctor before starting or stopping any medication regimen.

I'm having this chest pain that comes and goes every day. It really bothers me, but weirdly, it seems to ease up when I take deep breaths. I've been dealing with it for about two years now, and I've also been diagnosed with anxiety. Plus, I have issues with acidity and a bit of heartburn. Could my chest pain just be from anxiety, or is there something else going on?
it's because of gastritis,take tablet Omeprazole for 5 days

I'm really worried about a family member who's been diagnosed with severe calcific aortic stenosis. Ive heard about treatments like surgery, but I'm wondering if there are any other options out there, like medication or non-surgical approaches, that could help in managing this condition? I'm not very familiar with all the treatment possibilities and just want to explore anything that might be less invasive. What are our options here?
Severe calcific aortic stenosis typically requires surgical intervention, as medications alone are generally insufficient to treat the condition. The primary treatments include surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) or transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR), depending on the patient's overall health and suitability for surgery. While medications can help manage symptoms and associated conditions such as heart failure or high blood pressure, they do not address the underlying valve obstruction. Consulting with a cardiologist and a cardiac surgeon will provide the best treatment plan tailored to the patient's needs.
