Asked for male, 57 years old from Pune

I am 21-year-old female, I have very high pulse rate, mostly above 100, 120 is also normal for me but my metabolism is slow, any healing is slow, no thyroid problem nor diabetic but have pcos. I had to take iron and d3 as vitamin d and hemogram was way below normal. Vitamin d, till I started d3 supplements, was 5.7 and hemoglobin was 6.7 before I took 5 injections and now am taking supplements for the same. Now d3 is 24.35 and 10.9, less but better than before. What is the way forward? Why high pulse but slow metabolism? Thanks.

Hi dear friend.
I noted down your history. Here are the few points I would like to add from my side.
1) your pulse rate was/is high because your hb was/is low. 2) now as it is better than before but still you should take some supplements for vitamin b12 as well. 3) consume diet rich in iron like spinach, beetroot, dryfruits, eggs etc.
4) if all the above is corrected and still pulse is high then need to see for other issues like anxiety.
Thanks and regards.

Sir, my mom had suffered a minor heart block a few months ago. She has been taking medicines since then. Even before the block, her body had shown some green marks here and there on her body and is still there. It appears too often. Moreover, her blood level is always found to be low even if she has been taking medicines for blood too often.

Yes, there's a minimally invasive procedure that uses a catheter -- tavr -- that may be a better choice for some people who are at moderate to high risk of complications from open heart surgery. Tavr stands for transcatheter aortic valve replacement.
