This is a serious condition that needs to be managed properly to prevent complications. You can start taking Amlodipine (brand name Norvasc) at a dosage of 5mg once daily to help lower your blood pressure.

I'm 24 and just had an ECG. One doctor mentioned something about ST depression, but another said it's no big deal. Should I be worried about the ST depression? Is it something that can be treated?

ST depression on an ECG can be a sign of heart ischemia or other cardiac conditions. It is important to further evaluate the cause of the ST depression to determine the appropriate treatment. Depending on the underlying cause, treatment may involve medications such as aspirin, beta blockers, or nitroglycerin. In some cases, procedures like angioplasty or bypass surgery may be necessary. It is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.

Accepted Answer

it is advisable to follow your doctor's instructions regarding medication changes. In this case, since your father's medication has been changed from Ecosprin AV to Telmisartan and Metoprolol Succinate combination, it is important to continue with the new medication as prescribed. Once the TMT test and USG are conducted, the doctor will be able to provide further guidance based on the results. It is generally not recommended to stop medication abruptly without consulting the doctor. Therefore, please continue with the Telmisartan and Metoprolol Succinate combination as advised by the doctor

I'm having chest pain on the left side and it's been going on for quite a while now. I've had some tests done and it turns out there's a blockage in my heart. Do you think I should see a surgeon about this?

Accepted Answer

Based on your symptoms and test results showing blockage in your heart, you may need to start taking medications to manage your condition. One common medication prescribed for this is Aspirin, which helps to prevent blood clots and reduce the risk of heart attack. The usual dosage for Aspirin in this case is 75mg to 325mg per day. Additionally, a statin medication like Atorvastatin may be prescribed to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of further blockages. The typical starting dose for Atorvastatin is 10mg to 20mg once daily. It is important to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management of your heart condition.
