My mom is currently taking a CTD 12.5 tablet daily as her doctor prescribed. I've heard that generic medicines can be more affordable. Is there a generic version of this tablet you could recommend for us? I'm trying to find a more cost-effective option.

I've been feeling this weird pulsating in my stomach, and naturally, I've gone down the rabbit hole on the internet about abdominal aortic aneurysms. I'm only 21, but I can't help but wonder if it's possible for me to have one. I don't have any family history of it, but I'm a bit overweight and my heart rate is faster than normal. Should I be concerned about this?

I'm a 13-year-old boy with a hole in my heart, and my parents didn't go for the surgery. What kind of problems could this cause for me now and later in life? Will it get worse as I grow older?

A heart defect can cause breathlessness, fatigue, or infections later in life. Get an echocardiogram. If large, surgery may be needed before adulthood.
