I've been experiencing some strong side effects like muscle pain, dizziness, and shaky hands and legs from taking Rozavel and Pivasta. Are there any realistic alternatives or supplements in the Indian market that could lower my LDL by around 15-20% without serious side effects? I've heard about things like Coeveleselam, but I'd love to know more.

View allI'm experiencing some pain in my hand after the angiogram test. Could you let me know what might help ease it? Im a bit worried about why this is happening.
After an angiogram test, it is common to experience some pain or discomfort at the site where the procedure was done. To help reduce the pain in your hand, you can take over-the-counter pain medication such as acetaminophen (Tylenol) or ibuprofen (Advil). Make sure to follow the recommended dosage on the packaging. Additionally, applying a cold compress to the area for 15-20 minutes a few times a day can help reduce swelling and pain. If the pain persists or worsens, please consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm having trouble with a high heart rate. Sometimes it spikes over 100, and if I walk for just 5 minutes, it quickly jumps to around 120-130. Doing even a little bit of exercise can push it to 150. I've already had a 2D echo and TMT, but my doctor said everything looks normal. I'm really confused about what's causing this and wondering if there are other tests that might help diagnose the issue. How can I prevent these spikes from happening?
Given that your 2D echo and TMT results are normal, the elevated heart rate could be due to factors such as anxiety, deconditioning, thyroid issues, or other non-cardiac causes. It might be helpful to check your thyroid function with blood tests like TSH, Free T4, and Free T3, as hyperthyroidism can elevate heart rate. Monitoring for conditions like anemia with a complete blood count (CBC) and checking electrolyte levels might also be beneficial. To manage and prevent a high heart rate, consider stress-reduction techniques like mindfulness or yoga, ensure adequate hydration, and gradually increase your physical activity to improve cardiovascular fitness. Consult your healthcare provider to discuss these potential tests and management strategies further.

I'm concerned about the results from my husband's recent TMT test. He's 49 years old, and I noticed that his blood pressure was 12080 at the start but increased to 13080 afterward. Is this cause for concern, or is it normal for blood pressure to rise like that after a TMT test?
