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?

View allShould I consider getting a CT angiogram even though my ECG, ECHO, TMT, and chest X-ray have all come back normal? I'm experiencing some chest tightness and occasional shortness of breath, though its just for a moment. My cholesterol levels are a bit high, with LDL at 154 and HDL at 36. I weigh 108 kg, and my blood pressure is at 13075. My dad had bypass surgery back in 2018, so I'm wondering if having a CT angiogram is something I should look into given my symptoms and family history.
Considering your symptoms of chest tightness, shortness of breath, high LDL cholesterol levels, and family history of bypass surgery in your father, it may be prudent to further investigate the possibility of coronary artery disease. A CT ANGIOGRAM can provide detailed imaging of the blood vessels in your heart and help assess for any blockages or narrowing that may not be detected by the tests you have already undergone. In your case, a CT ANGIOGRAM may be recommended to rule out any significant coronary artery disease.

I'm really worried about my dad. He's 68 and the doctors said he has an enlarged heart. His heart rate is just 20 right now, and he had bypass surgery 4 years ago. There haven't been any problems recently, but after an echo test, they noticed his heart has gotten bigger. What should we do next?
Enlarged heart, also known as cardiomegaly, can be a serious condition, especially in individuals with a history of heart surgery like your father. A heart rate of 20 beats per minute is extremely low and can be life-threatening. It is important to seek immediate medical attention in such cases. In this situation, your father may need a pacemaker to regulate his heart rate and prevent complications. Additionally, medications such as Metoprolol or Carvedilol can be prescribed to help manage his heart condition and prevent further enlargement of the heart. The dosage will depend on his specific health status and needs, so it is important to consult with a healthcare provider for proper evaluation and treatment.

I've been feeling my heartbeat really easily, especially when I'm trying to sleep. I've gone through all the checkups, including wearing a Holter monitor, and everything came back normal. But I still feel my heart, and sometimes it feels like there's a crushing sensation in my chest. What can I do to stop this from happening?
