I've been taking Concor Cor 2.5mg for my blood pressure, but it makes my pulse drop below 60. I've started taking half a tablet because of that. Is it okay to switch to Concor Cor 1.25mg instead of splitting the 2.5mg pill?

View allI'm just wondering, after having an angiogram and getting a 3.2 stent placed, how long will I need to be on all these meds? I'm currently taking BRILINTA 90mg, ECOSPRIN 75mg, ALDACTONE 25mg, CARDACE 2.5mg, LASIX 40mg, IVABRAD 5mg, and ATOPLIP 80mg. It's a bit overwhelming and I'd like to know more about the typical duration for taking them.
few medicines like ecospirin ,cardace are for lifetime. kindly consult your cardiologist for your further medication list

I'm really worried because a couple of months ago, I had some chest pain and when they did an ECG, it showed slight ST elevation in V3 and V4. The cardiologist I saw said it wasnt heart-related, but just to be sure, he had me do a TMT, and that turned out negative. Now, I had chest pain again and went to the hospital. They did another ECG that showed sinus rhythm with sinus arrhythmia and ST elevation, possibly early repolarization with normally inflected T wave, and called it a borderline ECG. Should I be concerned about something serious going on here?
"Based on your description, it seems like you are experiencing chest pain with some concerning ECG findings. The ST elevation in V3 and V4 from the previous ECG, along with the ST elevation and early repolarization in the recent ECG, can be worrisome. However, since your cardiologist has already ruled out any significant heart issues with a negative TMT, it is less likely to be related to your heart. The presence of sinus rhythm with sinus arrhythmia indicates normal heart rhythm variation, which is usually not concerning. Early repolarization with borderline ECG findings can sometimes be a normal variant in young, healthy individuals. To address your chest pain and ECG findings, your doctor may consider monitoring your symptoms, lifestyle modifications, and possibly medication. In case of persistent or worsening symptoms, further evaluation or consultation with a cardiologist may be necessary. For symptomatic relief of chest pain, you can consider taking over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen. However, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for a proper evaluation and management plan."

I'm having some neck and shoulder pain and got an ECG done. The results mentioned something called "middling left axis deviation." Can you explain what this might mean?
Due to neck and shoulders pain, the ECG showing middling left axis deviation may indicate a possible heart condition. It is recommended to consult a cardiologist for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, you can take Acetaminophen 500mg every 6 hours as needed for pain relief.
