I'm on some medications right nowConcor 2.5, Paxidep CR 25, and Nexpro RD 40for panic disorder and concentric LVH. I've been thinking about doing some cardio exercises like running, jogging, push-ups, sit-ups, and maybe some light weight lifting with a dumbbell. I'm planning to do this for about 30 to 40 minutes, five days a week, because I've noticed I'm gaining some weight. I weigh 70 kg at a height of 5'3". Is it okay to keep up with these exercises while on these meds, or should I be cautious?

I'm really worried about my brother. He had COVID-19 a few months back, and he's still dealing with some tough symptoms like a racing heart rate, tremors, tinnitus, and fatigue. Hes only 30 and was super healthy and fit before all this. His echo was normal a while ago, but the cardiologist did mention arrhythmia back then. Lately, he's been feeling chest pain just from walking or climbing stairs, and his heart rate shoots up to 150-180. It's affecting his daily life a lot post-COVID. We got an NT Pro BNP test done, and it came back at 160. Could this be an early sign of heart failure? Should we look into more tests or anything else?
"Based on the symptoms your brother is experiencing, along with the elevated NT Pro BNP levels, there may be concerns about the possibility of heart failure. It is important to further investigate and monitor his condition. I recommend consulting with a cardiologist for a thorough evaluation. In the meantime, to help manage his symptoms, he can be prescribed with medication such as Carvedilol 6.25mg twice daily to help reduce heart rate and improve heart function. Additionally, he can take Furosemide 20mg once daily to help reduce fluid buildup in the body. These medications can help alleviate his symptoms and improve his quality of life. It is also important for him to follow a low-sodium diet and avoid strenuous activities. Regular follow-ups with the cardiologist are essential to monitor his condition and adjust treatment as needed."

I've been having this strange sensation on the left side of my chest, kind of like a needle prick. I got an ECG done, and it was normal, which is a relief, but my doctor put me on Provonal Forte. I'm just wondering, could this be some kind of chest infection or maybe anxiety acting up?
The symptoms you are experiencing could be related to anxiety or nerve-related issues. Provanol forte tablet is likely prescribed to help with chest discomfort and anxiety symptoms. However, if you are still feeling needle pricking sensations in your chest, it is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can take Paracetamol for pain relief as needed.
