Brief Answer:
Nothing sinister...
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I went through the attached reports and prescription. From the report I understand you have history of hypothyroidism on thyronorm. Perhaps you were also on medications to lower lipid levels.
In this circumstances, I am unsure why an ultrasound scan as well as CT was performed. Both the reports showed nothing alarming. You have couple of small stones and possibly bladder inflammation secondary to infection. And therefore your doctor has started you on antibiotic - Zanocin initially and later Niftran.
Besides this, your lipids revealed elevated triglycerides. Therefore you are prescribed to take tab rosuvas F.
In addition there was elevated blood pressure noted. Hence the doctor choose to start you on an antihypertensive drug Tab Olzox. Tab Elio - Q is started to complement the effects and for organ protection role.
Along with it, hypothyroid medications are lowered.
In a nutshell, I think your doctor has started all the drugs in your best interest. If your blood pressure comes back to normal, and if you have no history of hypertension in the past, then may be antihypertensive drugs can be rolled back after a few days. Antibiotics can be stopped as the infection gets cleared. Your doctor will tell you more about it.
Rest of the drugs namely thyronorm and rosuvas F may need to be continued for a longer time.
I hope I was able to put things more clearly. If you have any questions, let me know.
Regards
