I've been experiencing heart palpitations, shortness of breath, and feeling lightheaded since Sunday. I've also gained a bit of weight and recently had an argument with my husband. I have PCOS and I'm currently taking metformin. Could these symptoms be related to my condition or medication? Should I be concerned?

It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of anxiety or a possible cardiac issue. Given your history of PCOS and current medication, metformin, it is important to consider any potential interactions. I recommend you to consult with a doctor for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, to help alleviate your symptoms, you can try taking a beta-blocker such as Metoprolol at a low dose of 25mg once daily. Additionally, practicing stress-reducing techniques such as deep breathing exercises or mindfulness meditation may also be beneficial. Remember to prioritize self-care and seek medical attention if your symptoms worsen or persist.

View allI'm feeling a bit worried about my blood pressure readings. I got a reading of 135110 at the hospital and 140102 with a digital machine at home. I'm already taking Eritel LN 40 and Concor 2.5, but my regular doctor isn't available right now. I went to a clinic nearby because I've had headaches and blurred vision, and they recommended I take Telma H 4012.5 in the morning and keep up the Concor 2.5 mg at night for the next week until I can see my usual doctor. Does this sound like the right approach, or is there anything else I should consider?
Your blood pressure readings are slightly elevated, and you are experiencing headaches and slight blurriness in vision. Based on the information provided, you are currently taking Eritel LN 40 and Concor 2.5 for your blood pressure. The clinic has advised you to take Telma H 4012.5 in the morning and continue with Concor 2.5 mg at night for 7 days. I recommend following the advice given by the clinic. Take Telma H 4012.5 in the morning and Concor 2.5 mg at night as prescribed. It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and consult your regular physician as advised. If you experience any concerning symptoms or if your condition worsens, seek medical attention promptly.

I've been prescribed Biotor tablet 10 instead of Clavix and Atorlip, and my doctor mentioned it has Ecospirin in it. But when I looked it up online, it seems like it only contains atorvastatin. I'm really confused nowdoes Biotor tablet 10 actually have Ecospirin too?
No it does not contain aspirin.
