Question

I had an ECG done yesterday, and the report said there's a long left axis deviation. Can you explain what that means? I've attached the ECG for you to check.

Long left axis deviation on an ECG can indicate various underlying conditions such as heart enlargement, high blood pressure, or conduction abnormalities. It is important to correlate this finding with your symptoms and medical history. In some cases, further evaluation such as an echocardiogram may be needed. Please follow up with your healthcare provider for a detailed evaluation and appropriate management.

Question

I'm feeling healthy overall, but I've been experiencing this needle-like poking sensation in my heart a few times a day, and it's starting to worry me. I'm curious if there's something I can do naturally to stop it. Any advice?

Question

I'm worried because I sometimes feel like my heart stops for a moment. I got an echo and an ECG done, but the doctor just gave me vitamin capsules. Should I be concerned about something more serious?

Question

I've noticed my heart rate drops to around 41-45 when I'm sleeping, and I'm a bit worried about it. I'm currently taking Ivabradine, 5mg twice a day. During the day, my heart rate is generally between 85-90, and it goes up to 105-110 while I'm walking. I started on Ivabradine because my heart rate would hit 150 with just minimal exertion. Is it normal for my heart rate to drop like that while I'm asleep, or should I be concerned?
