Our body has Carcadian system and this rythm dips and raises throutout the day. This system sends out PA1-1 cells which blocks the blood clots from breaking down. Another reason is when we wake up, brain floods the heart with hormones which increases the load on the heart .

I'm really worried about my vitamin D3 and B12 levels, which are 12 and 160, and I've been experiencing chest pain. I did an ECG, echo, and TMT, and they all came back normal. My doctor suggested taking Neurobion Forte, but since I started it, my chest pain seems to be getting worse. What do you think could be causing this? Should I be worried about a reaction to the medication, or could there be another issue that wasn't detected?

After taking tab Neurobion Forte, if your chest pain has increased, it may be due to a reaction to the medication. Neurobion Forte contains a combination of vitamins B1, B6, and B12. Since you are experiencing chest pain, it is important to stop taking Neurobion Forte and consult your doctor for an alternative medication. In the meantime, you can try taking a pain reliever like acetaminophen for relief from chest pain.

I'm really worried about my dad, he's 53 and just had a CABG bypass surgery. I noticed his platelet count shot up quite a bit, like it was 3.9 lakhs before surgery and now it's 9.3 lakhs, and Im concerned about whether thats normal after surgery. There wasn't any blood transfusion done. Can someone shed some light on what might be happening here?

It is not uncommon for platelet counts to be elevated after surgery, including coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). This condition, known as postoperative thrombocytosis, typically occurs as a response to surgery and the body's healing process. However, a significant increase such as from 3.9 lakhs to 9.3 lakhs should be monitored closely by his healthcare team to rule out any complications. I recommend discussing this with your father's cardiologist or primary care physician to ensure proper follow-up and management.

I'm really worried about my 72-year-old mom. She had an angioplasty last month and didn't have any pain after, but she's developed this really bad dry cough. She's on a bunch of meds: clopilet, ecosprin, prolomet, ivabrad, lipicure, pantocid, and piriton syrup, plus aldactone. Do you think any of these could be causing her cough, or is there something else we should be looking into? I really want to help her get some relief. What do you suggest?
