Question

Is a heart rate of 108 bpm something I should be worried about? I'm seeing something called sinus tachycardia in my report, and I'm not sure if it's dangerous or just something common. Could you clarify this for me?

Question

I'm really worried about the results from my ECG which said something about provocable myocardial ischemia, but I haven't had any cardiac symptoms of IHD. I'm only 48 years old and I'm not sure what this means for my heart health. Should I be concerned or do anything specific to address this?

Question

I'm a bit concerned because I had a PTCA procedure about 14 months ago. Now, my doctor is suggesting I stop taking Axcer 90 mg twice daily for 5 days and just stick with Ecosprin 75 mg once a day. This is supposed to be for a CT-guided biopsy because I've got multiple lymph nodes in my abdomen. Is this safe, and should I be worried about any risks with stopping Axcer?
