Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
I am a 66 years old male. My weight is 154.32 Ibs and my height is 5'4". I had lost around 5 kg over a year. I am allergic to dust and will get sneeze and nose blockages following exposure. I am suffering from diabetes, BP, cholesterol, chronic fissure, constipation, and occasional gastric problem. My diet is as follows. Morning: Green tea, oats. Breakfast: Idli/dosa/roti and a cup of tea with milk and without sugar. Lunch: Fruits like citrus fruits, watermelon, apple, and orange. Rice, curry, and vegetables. Evening: Snacks like biscuits, fried foods like vada (Indian snacks), etc., and tea with milk and without sugar. Dinner: Rice, curry, and vegetables. I am under the following medicines. Gluconorm SR 1-0-0 daily and taking this for more than a year. Corvadil 2.5 mg 0-0-1 daily. I am on this tablet for around 6 years. Fenotorva 10 0-0-1, occasionally. My doubts are, as the blood sugar levels are normal, can I stop taking Gluconorm SR? Or can I switch to any Ayurveda medicine to control it? Are these conditions linked to my weight loss? Is it fine to have the same medicines for years together? Thanks in advance.

Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
Thank you for the answer.
I had ECG four months back and the interpretation is as follows: Probably MI inferior, minor left axis deviation, R/S inversion is between V1-V2. Probably abnormal ECG. While taking ECG if the patient had taken tension, will it affect the findings? One chest x-ray was taken a year ago and reported as blunting of the left costophrenic angle. What is pleural thickening and minimal effusion? Another x-ray was done before four months which was reported as patchy areas of consolidation in the left lower zone. I have attached the blood reports, ECG and x-rays. I would like to know the outcome of the reports. What further action should I take? Are any further tests required? Can I have sweets as my blood sugar is in control? What medication should I take for the condition mentioned in the x-ray?
