i have been taking tri-cor and simvastatin (40mg) for several years. Over the last 8 months i stopped taking the tri-cor because insurance no longer covered it and I decreased my simvastatin to 20mg. At the same time in increased my fiber significantly (metemucil and high fiber cereal daily) and began taking one 1000mg of fish oil each day. Lost a few pounds as well, I'm 41, 5'10" and 173lbs non-smoker.
Hi I'm Marc,
I have an essay about this casestudy and I really need help...
Well a patient with chronic bronchitis complains of worsened dyspnea at exertion and it worsens at rest.
There are alot of details but from what I've researched the patient could have cor pulmonale as there is right ventricular hypertrophy. But as i further researched I found that most of the clinical manifestations also matched dilated cardiomyopathy.
Doctor must first exclude (on clinical grounds) other causes of right axis deviation such as cor pulmonale. An echo can rule out cor pulmonale and that disorder leads to an increase in bulk of the right ventricle of the heart, generally caused by chronic diseases or malfunction of the lungs. This condition can lead to heart failure. Also, to rule out is pulmonary right-heart disease, pulmonary hypertension, etc., because these conditions can result in the identical ECG picture!
Hello , I am 24 years old female, for about two years I had chest pains which prevents me
from sleeping or doing my daily activates , fatigue and dizzness , whenever I went to the
hospitals they just told it's muscle pain , until I went to another doctor who did an echo for me
and told me that I had mitral valve prolapse with mild regration and gave me " Inderal " but I didn't feel well at all , so he changed the medicine to " con cor 2.
With me being a ftm I really wanna try to go natural. The way I look is women have been laboring and birthing children cor years with out the drugs why do we depend on them so much now. Thankfully my doctor is one that saus we are doing this your way its your experience.

My results so far are hbsag non-reactive/ hb cor tot non reactive/ anti hb reactive.
20% complications) valve choice these days are 70% tissue and 30% mechanical, and probably the mechanical choices are due to the mitral valve, which they almost always say should be mechanical
My last tests hbsag non reactive/. Anti hb cor tot - non reactive and hbsab reactive. My exposure more than a year ago. Do I need more testing? Where should I go an infectious disease doc?
Hello all,
I am a Male age 42, with type 2 diabetes currently on insulin treatment(Humulin U500) In 2008 I was diagnosed with Cor Pulmonale after an extended period of untreated sleep apnea. Since then I have been experiencing the following symptoms:
Intermittent chest pain
Dyspnea (on even light exertion and lying down)
Nagging cough, Sore, raw feeling lungs, pain on taking a full deep breath
Edema in the feet, legs, hands, arms, torso
Skeletal muscle pains after a short time of use, i.e.
I had one come back with levels at 95 which I was told here high. I was taking Vitorin cor colestoral at the time. I stopped taking the meds and they returned to normal. Are you taking any meds?? So can cause the levels to increase.
I am a 55 years old male. I had AVR with 21 mm diameter of St. Jude mechanical valve 23 years ago because of the calcifiend aortic stenosis . It might be BAV. After the AVR the mechanical valve has been working well with a pressure gradient of 25 mmHg thru the valve. Recently I found a dilation of ascending aorta, 47mm by the 2nd CT. The first CT about two years(21 months) ago showed 45 mm in diameter at ascending aorta 5 cm above the valve.
The ST depression in the inferolateral leads at your top exercise level and during recovery indicates that your heart might not be getting enough oxygen.
An angiography is the logical next step to see if this really is the case and where the possible problem areas are.
