Dear Doctors,
We are writing to request clinical clearance regarding a supplement for 60 year old diabetic patien. She is currently being treated for Triple Vessel Disease (TVD) and Congestive Heart Failure with a 42% Ejection Fraction (EF).
Lately, she has been experiencing persistent muscle pain, weakness, and generalized fatigue.
Since her regimen includes Ecosprin AV 75/40 (which contains Atorvastatin), we are wondering if these muscle aches might be statin-induced myalgia due to a secondary CoQ10 depletion. Furthermore, we understand that CoQ10 supports mitochondrial energy production in a weakened heart muscle, which might help address her fatigue.
Her current full prescription is:
- Prolomet-XL 25 (1/2 tablet)
- Dytor Plus 5 (1/2 tablet)
- Axcer 90
- Ecosprin AV 75/40
- Insulin (NovaRapid and Lantus)
Given her exact medication profile especially the concurrent use of dual antiplatelets (Axcer and Ecosprin) is it safe to introduce an over-the-counter CoQ10 supplement ?
My wife with 5 sten and 5 bloone and modrateMR I want to attached CT Anjiography test report resently we did. Give me advice about her resent condition and treatment
Im having elevated ldl cholesterol above 190mg/dl from past 3 yrs , with lifestyle modification and diet changes i have reduced my weight by 7kg and ldl cholesterol to 158mg/dl. Despite of the changes im having borderline high ldl cholesterol. I have also done lipoprotein a test which is also on the higher side . Do I require to take statins for indefinite period or I can decrease cholesterol levels further by diet and exercise alone.
In Feb'26 I got stressed out and became very anxious. I was put on Concor 2.5mg. All test 2D Echo and ECG were done and normal. Then at the same time I developed a UTI infection and after I got better I was put on Concor 5T as in the doctor office my BP went 150/100 whereas at home it has been 115-145/72-86 in that range, Now my BP is always between 110-118/62-76. I have been taking Concor 5T since a month now. Can I reduce and completely stop the medication as I never had BP before in my life, only during the time of my anxiousness it went up and only whenever my BP is checked at a doctor's place it goes up with the fear.
On my left centre chest side, sharp, pinching pain is occuring while i breathe deeply, yawn, burp and during bending.
It started from 1-1:30 hour before..
