I've just turned 17, and I'm trying to understand my lvef count, which is at 75. Is this something normal for someone my age? Any insights you could share would be really helpful because I'm a bit concerned.

An ejection fraction (EF) of 75% is considered normal and indicates good heart function. There is no need to worry about this result. Just continue to maintain a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise and a balanced diet.

I'm curious about the Inderal LA 20 tablet. What exactly is it used for? Can it help with blood pressure, or is it meant for something else?

Inderal LA 20 tablet is a brand name for propranolol, which is a beta-blocker medication. It is commonly used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension), as well as to prevent chest pain (angina) and to improve survival after a heart attack. Propranolol can also be used to prevent migraine headaches and to manage symptoms of anxiety. The usual dosage for high blood pressure is 120-240 mg per day, divided into smaller doses.

I'm really worried about my brother. He's been having this chest pain and it's like the bones in his chest are hurting too. We went to a general physician who thought it could be gas-related, but the tablets he prescribed haven't helped after a week. I've noticed his chest bones seem to be swelling a bit, and he describes it as feeling like there's a heavy weight there. Interestingly, he sometimes feels relief and no pressure on his chest after he passes bowel movements. Also, he has a sitting job as securitycould that be making his chest pain worse? Should we get an X-ray to find out what's going on, or is there a specific medication you might recommend?
