I've been experiencing an increased heart rate after starting Torvate 200. How long does it usually take to get back to normal? Should I be concerned or do anything specific in the meantime?

Increase in heart rate due to Torvate 200 is a known side effect of the medication. To help normalize your heart rate, you can try the following: - Reduce caffeine intake - Practice relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises or meditation - Stay hydrated - Get regular exercise - Ensure you are getting enough sleep If your heart rate remains elevated or if you experience any concerning symptoms, please consult your healthcare provider. The duration for your heart rate to return to normal can vary depending on individual factors, so it is important to monitor your symptoms closely.

View allHey, I had a heart attack three months ago and I initially thought it was just a gastric issue, so I didn't go to the hospital right away. I was working normally until I went in for a routine check-up a few days later and they told me I had a heart attack. They did an angioplasty and put a stent in my LAD, and everything seemed to go well. Now, I'm doing a morning walk every day, around 6 km in an hour. I'm a 47-year-old guy and I'm just wondering, when would be a good time for me to go for a stress echo?
Given that you had a heart attack three months ago and have since undergone successful angioplasty with stent placement, its important to follow your cardiologist's advice for follow-up care. Typically, a stress echo is recommended several months after the procedure to evaluate how well your heart is functioning under stress and to ensure that the stent is working effectively. You should consult with your cardiologist to determine the best timing for this test based on your individual recovery and health status. Its great that you are walking daily; continue following your doctor's guidance on physical activity and medication.

I'm having some trouble with breathlessness and occasional chest pain. I got an ECG, and it came back normal, but a 2D echo showed mild concentric LVH with reduced diastolic compliance, grade 1. Everything else seemed fine. My hemoglobin is at 6.7, blood pressure at 16090, and pulse at 105. Cholesterol levels are total 149, triglycerides 94, HDL 55, and LDL 100. I also have some gastric issues, and the breathlessness feels better after I burp. Do you think this is something I should be worried about, or is it okay?
Given your symptoms of breathlessness and chest pain, the mild concentric LVH with reduced diastolic compliance noted in your 2D echo, high blood pressure of 16090, and significantly low hemoglobin level of 6.7, there are multiple areas needing attention. While your ECG and cholesterol levels are normal, the combination of LVH, hypertension, and anemia requires medical management. Addressing your anemia is crucial, as it can contribute to your breathlessness and fatigue. Managing your blood pressure through medication adjustments and lifestyle changes is also important. Since your breathlessness is relieved by burping, addressing any gastrointestinal issues such as acid reflux is necessary. Follow up with your cardiologist for ongoing monitoring and management of the LVH and reduced diastolic compliance.

I'm a bit concerned about a medication change I went through. So, originally, I was prescribed Telma 40 AMH at Pace Hospital in Hyderabad, but I started experiencing some leg swelling. Then, at Manipal Hospital in Vijayawada, they switched me over to Cinod T, and I've been on it for about two months now. Should I keep taking the Cinod T, or do you think the original Telma 40 AMH was adequate? Could the leg swelling have been something I should worry about related to the Telma 40 AMH, or is it safe to switch back?
Telma 40 AMH is a combination drug containing Telmisartan and Amlodipine, which is commonly used to treat high blood pressure. Cinod T is a combination drug containing Cilnidipine and Telmisartan, also used for high blood pressure. Since you experienced leg swelling with Telma 40 AMH, it may be advisable to continue with Cinod T as prescribed by Manipal, Vijayawada. Cinod T can be continued if it is effectively controlling your blood pressure without causing any significant side effects. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and monitoring.
