I recently went through a medical test for my insurance, and they noted something called tachycardia. I'm a bit worried and curiousdoes this mean that tachycardia is actually present in my report? How do I confirm if it's really something to be concerned about?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Tachycardia is a condition where your heart beats faster than normal. To confirm if tachycardia is present in your report, you can look for the heart rate measurement. If your resting heart rate is consistently above 100 beats per minute, then it is likely that tachycardia is present. If you have been diagnosed with tachycardia, medications like Metoprolol (25-100mg) or Atenolol (25-100mg) may be prescribed to help regulate your heart rate.

View allI'm really concerned about my husband's ECG results. I've attached them for you to see. It shows sinus bradycardia and sinus arrhythmia. Could this be because he works out regularly? Do these results seem normal, or is there something we should be worried about?
Sinus bradycardia with sinus arrhythmia can be a normal finding in individuals, especially in those who are physically fit like your husband who regularly goes to the gym. It is usually not a cause for concern if there are no associated symptoms. However, it is important to monitor any symptoms such as dizziness, fainting, chest pain, or shortness of breath. If your husband is asymptomatic, no specific treatment is usually required. Just continue with regular check-ups with your healthcare provider to monitor his heart health.

I'm really worried about my blood pressure. Are there any known cases of curing essential hypertension? It seems like my sympathetic nervous system is always in overdrive, causing my body to jump into fight or flight mode for no reason. There's no sign of any tumors on my pituitary or adrenal glands, and all my blood tests and ECGs have come back normal. Is it possible to permanently fix this by getting my sympathetic nervous system back to normal?
While essential hypertension may not be "cured" in the traditional sense, it can be effectively managed through a combination of lifestyle changes, stress management, and medication. Working with a healthcare professional to optimize treatment, including controlling SNS overactivity, is important to help manage your blood pressure and prevent complications.

I'm dealing with depression and recently had some heart tests done - my TMT came back negative, and both my ECG and echo were normal. However, my doctor prescribed me macsart 40 for blood pressure. I'm confused and a bit worried. Why would they prescribe BP medicine if my tests are normal? Any advice would be appreciated.
