I recently did a 24-hour Holter monitoring because I've been feeling like my heart rate drops sometimes. The doctor said everything looked fine, but I'm still feeling uneasy about it. Could you take another look at the report to make sure everything's okay?

View allI'm really worried about my brother. He's 25 and we've just found out he's got a 20mm hole in his heart. I'm not sure how serious this is and what the next steps should be. Can you help us understand what all of this means and what we should do next?
Treatment for ASD depends on the size of the hole and the symptoms it is causing. In some cases, small ASDs may not require treatment and can close on their own. However, larger defects may require intervention. One common treatment for ASD is surgical repair, where the hole is closed with a patch. Another option is transcatheter closure, where a device is inserted through a catheter to close the hole. Medications may also be prescribed to manage symptoms or prevent complications. In this case, your brother may be prescribed medications such as aspirin to prevent blood clots or medications to manage heart failure symptoms. It is important for your brother to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation and to discuss the best treatment options for his specific situation.

I'm feeling really shaky and I've been having these spells of dizziness, lightheadedness, and nausea. I've been keeping an eye on my blood pressure since around 5pm, and it's been all over the place. It started at 12987 with a pulse of 75, then went to 13994 with a pulse of 89, 13795 with a pulse of 84, 13387 with a pulse of 70, and now it's at 13290 with a pulse of 76. I made sure I was sitting up straight and resting before and during each check. I'm really trying to figure out what's going on with me. Can you help?
Your symptoms of shakiness, dizziness, lightheadedness, and nausea, combined with fluctuating blood pressure readings, may indicate dehydration, anxiety, or an underlying condition such as orthostatic hypotension, hypoglycemia, or autonomic nervous system dysfunction; consider consulting a healthcare professional for a thorough evaluation and potential tests, such as blood work or an ECG, to determine the underlying cause.
