View allI'm a bit confused about my prescription. The doctor mentioned something about Prolomet XL R 50mg5mg. Is that the same as saying Prolomet XL 50mg and Prolomet R 50mg5mg? I'm not certain if he wants me to take XL or just R. Could you help me understand the difference?
It is the combination medication , prolomet xl r 505 mg is the medication.

I've been feeling some movement on the left side of my chest, and I've already had an ECG and a 2D echo done. The ECG showed sinus tachycardia, probably because I was feeling anxious at that moment, along with right axis deviation and a borderline result. But the 2D echo came back normal. I'm also checking my heart rate often to see if it's palpitations, but it's normal, around 70-80. I'm not sure what's causing these movementscould it be gas or maybe something to do with nerve movements? What do you think?
It sounds like you are experiencing some discomfort in your left side chest area. Based on your ECG and 2D echo reports, it is good to know that your heart seems to be functioning normally. The sinus tachycardia with right axis deviation and borderline ECG findings may be related to your anxiety at that moment. Since your heart rate is normal (around 70-80), the movements you are feeling in your chest may not be related to palpitations. It is possible that the discomfort could be due to gas or muscle movements. To help with the discomfort, you can try taking an antacid like **Ranitidine** 150mg for gas relief. Additionally, you can also consider taking a muscle relaxant like **Cyclobenzaprine** 10mg to help with any muscle spasms that may be causing the movements in your chest. Make sure to follow the recommended dosage instructions for these medications and if the symptoms persist or worsen, it would be best to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation.

I'm dealing with some persistent swelling in my feet and ankles that's been going on for over three months now. I'm currently on calaptin 240sr, aztor 10, and nexito forte. Should I be concerned about any side effects from these meds, or could something else be causing this swelling? Also, do you have any suggestions on what I should do next?
