I'm really worried because my husband keeps having this slight pain and tightness in the center of his chest. It's especially bothersome when he coughs or takes a deep breath during these episodes. It's not happening all the time, but I'm not sure if we should investigate heart problems or something else. There aren't any other symptoms to go off of. What should we do?

I've noticed my heart rate is jumping between 54 and 131. I'm a healthy 19-year-old, so is this normal? Should I be worried about these fluctuations?

Your fluctuating heart rate may be due to various factors. It's important to monitor your heart rate and consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can try taking propranolol 10mg twice daily to help regulate your heart rate. Make sure to follow up with your doctor for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.

I'm really concerned about my mom. She had her MVR surgery back in December 2011, and for the past year and a half, she's been paralyzed. Recently, her INR levels were all over the place and hit 6, so we stopped her dose for three days. We've restarted with acitrom 2, but on November 10th her INR was 1.99 and PT was 20. I'm trying to figure out what the right dosage should be for her now. Any advice would be really helpful.

Regarding your mother's case, based on her current situation with an INR of 1.99 and PT of 20, the appropriate dose adjustment for her would be to continue with Acitrom 2, but with a slight increase in dosage. I recommend increasing the dose to Acitrom 2.5 to help stabilize her INR levels more effectively. It's important to monitor her INR levels regularly to ensure they stay within the target range.

I recently did a master health check-up and found my LDL cholesterol is at 120. The ECG shows "sinus rhythm incomplete right bundle branch block." The doctor prescribed Arvast 10 mg and suggested I start walking. I noticed my MCV is at 54, lymphocytes at 45, ALT in the liver function test is 51, and serum urea is 15. Does everything look normal in the report, especially with the ECG?

may not necessarily indicate a serious issue. As for your medication, ARVAST 10 Mg is a common medication used to lower LDL cholesterol levels. Additionally, maintaining a regular walking routine as advised by your doctor can also help improve your overall cardiovascular health. Regarding your other test results, a MCV of 54 is within the normal range. A lymphocyte count of 45 is also within normal limits. An ALT level of 51 is slightly elevated, which may indicate some liver inflammation or damage. For this, you may consider taking medication to improve liver function.
