View allI'm taking ecospirin 75 every night at 9:30 PM, but sometimes I accidentally miss a dose. I'm worried about what could happen if I skip a day or two. Could you let me know if there would be any side effects or anything I should be aware of?
Missing a dose of ecospirin 75 (aspirin) can increase the risk of blood clots forming in your arteries, which can lead to serious conditions such as heart attack or stroke. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule. Do not take a double dose to make up for a missed one.

I'm a bit concerned because my recent ECG report mentioned LVH. I'm not sure if this is something I need to be really worried about. I don't smoke, but sometimes I get pain in my left thigh, and I've been having some stress-related chest discomfort due to work. Should I start treatment right away for LVH, and are there any specific precautions I should be taking?
LVH, or left ventricular hypertrophy, is a condition where the muscle of the left ventricle of the heart becomes thickened. It can be a serious issue if left untreated, as it can increase the risk of heart problems such as heart failure, arrhythmias, and heart attacks. In your case, it is important to address the underlying causes of LVH. Since you have mentioned occasional pain in your left thigh and stress-related chest discomfort, it is crucial to manage these symptoms and reduce stress levels to prevent further complications. Treatment for LVH may include medications such as ACE inhibitors, beta blockers, or calcium channel blockers to help reduce the workload on the heart. Lifestyle changes such as maintaining a healthy diet, regular exercise, managing stress, and avoiding smoking are also important in managing LVH. It is recommended to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation and to discuss the appropriate treatment plan based on your individual health status and risk factors.
