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 allHey, a few days back I had a weird situation where I started feeling really anxious, my heart rate shot up to 150, and I had palpitations. I took Ciplar LA 20 and Dolo 650, and luckily my pulse eventually dropped back to 75. I'm trying to figure out if this was Supraventricular Tachycardia or just something normal? This happened to me once about three months ago, and it got better after taking Dolo 650 and some anxiety meds. I even had an ECG done in May, and that came out perfect. Do you think these two episodes could be Supraventricular Tachycardia, or are they just normal?
Based on your description, it is possible that you experienced episodes of Supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) given the sudden onset of palpitations, anxiety feeling, and rapid rise in pulse rate to 150 beats per minute. The fact that your symptoms improved after taking Ciplar LA 20 (propranolol) which is a beta-blocker commonly used to manage SVT supports this possibility. Additionally, the normal ECG results in May suggest that there may not be any underlying structural heart issues causing the SVT. For the management of SVT episodes, you can continue to use Ciplar LA 20 as needed to help control your heart rate. It is important to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation and to discuss long-term management options, such as potential medication adjustments or other interventions like ablation therapy. In the meantime, it is advisable to avoid triggers that may precipitate SVT episodes, such as caffeine, stress, or certain medications. Keeping a record of your symptoms and discussing them with your healthcare provider can also help in monitoring your condition effectively.

I'm concerned about my husband's ECG report. It mentions something called Early Repolarization, and he's only 28. Could this be something serious, or should we be worried about it? I'd really love to get some advice on what this means and if we need to do anything about it.
In ECG report, "Early Repolarization" is a common finding and usually not a cause for concern, especially in young individuals like your husband who is only 28 years old. It is often considered a benign variant and does not typically require any specific treatment. However, it is important to consider other factors such as symptoms, medical history, and overall health status. If your husband is not experiencing any symptoms such as chest pain, shortness of breath, dizziness, or fainting episodes, and if he has no other significant medical conditions, then no specific treatment may be necessary. It is advisable to follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and to rule out any other potential cardiac issues. In the meantime, it is important for your husband to maintain a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise, a balanced diet, and avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol consumption. If there are any concerns or new symptoms arise, it is recommended to seek medical attention for further assessment and guidance.

I'm really worried about this heart murmur that was detected during my TB treatment. I completed 9 months of medication, and an echo test came back normal. But the heart murmur is still being detected. Could the TB meds be causing this? It all started when I began taking them. What should I do?
Cardiologist opinion is advised to the patient.
