I've been tracking my health stats lately, and my SGPT level has been at 73, SHOT level at 37, and my cholesterol is reading 211 for the past week. I'm really hoping to get these numbers to a normal range in the next 4 to 5 days. Can you give me some advice on how to make that happen?

-It's important to take a gradual approach to improving SGPT, SGOT, and cholesterol levels. In 4-5 days, it may not be realistic to achieve significant changes, but you can focus on a healthy diet, staying hydrated, avoiding alcohol, and exercising regula

My aunt had a heart attack last month and the doctor recommended bypass surgery. I've attached her angiography report could you advise whether bypass or angioplasty would be the better option for her?

Bypass surgery may be considered as the better option for surgery in some cases where the arteries of the heart may be clogged in multiple areas or when the blockage is in the main coronary artery in the left portion of the heart.

Is it normal for my resting heart rate to sometimes drop to 55? I've been keeping an eye on it using my Apple Watch, and I've noticed this happens on about six days over the past month. I'm currently taking Ciplar LA 20 since July, and before that, I was on Petril Beta for two months. Also, when I exercise, my heart rate shoots up to between 150 and 180 but returns to normal pretty quickly after I stop. I had a stress echo test done last December and everything was fine, but I'm wondering if I need any further testing. What do you think?

Resting heart rate between 54 to 60 beats per minute is considered normal for adults. Since you have a history of taking Ciplar LA 20 and Petril beta, which are beta blockers, it is expected to have a lower resting heart rate. Your heart rate increasing to 150 to 180 beats per minute during exercise is also normal and shows that your heart is responding appropriately to physical activity. As long as your heart rate returns to normal after you stop exercising, and considering your previous normal stress echo test results, there is no immediate need for further testing. Just continue monitoring your heart rate and consult your doctor if you notice any concerning symptoms.

I'm feeling a bit unsure about this medication Prolomet R 25 that my cardiologist prescribed. They said not to worry after some tests, but I found out it's a beta blocker, and I'm concerned because I don't have any blood pressure issues. Could you please guide me on if and how I should stop taking it?

Prolomet R 25, a beta-blocker, is often prescribed for heart-related issues such as palpitations, anxiety, or to improve heart function, even if you do not have high blood pressure. If you have concerns about this medication, do not stop taking it abruptly, as this can lead to withdrawal symptoms or exacerbation of your condition. Instead, consult your cardiologist to discuss your concerns and to determine whether you need to continue the medication or if it can be gradually tapered off under medical supervision. Your doctor can provide a safe plan for discontinuing the medication if it is deemed appropriate.
