View allI've been experiencing a rapid heartbeat lately, and I'm not sure if it's a side effect of the medication I'm on or if it's a heart issue. Could you give me some advice on this?
Rapid heart beat can be a concerning symptom. It is important to identify if it is a side effect of the tablets you are taking or a cardiac issue. To determine if it is a side effect of your medication, please provide me with the names of the tablets you are currently taking along with their dosages. If it is related to a cardiac problem, I recommend consulting with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management.

I'm having some slight chest pain and noticed a little change in my ECG readings. Could this be related to the medications I'm taking? I'm currently on Ecosprin, Thinrin, Concor, Coversyl, and Crestor. Should I be worried about this combination of medicines affecting my heart?

The usual dosage ranges from 2.5mg to 10mg per day. - COVERSYL (Perindopril) is an ACE inhibitor used to treat high blood pressure and heart failure. The usual dosage ranges from 2mg to 16mg per day. - CRESTOR (Rosuvastatin) is a statin medication used to lower cholesterol levels. The usual dosage ranges from 5mg to 40mg per day. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management of your symptoms.

I'm a bit worried about my recent ECG results. It says I have a normal sinus rhythm but also an incomplete right bundle branch block and that its borderline ECG. Is this something serious I should be concerned about? I've done an ECG twice now, and I'm attaching both for your review. Could you help me understand what this means for my health?
