I'm 22 and my resting heart rate is 112. Is this something I should be worried about? I haven't had any cholesterol or high blood pressure issues, and there aren't any heart problems in my past either.

I'm a bit concerned about my health and would really appreciate some advice. Back in May 2017, I had an angioplasty and have been keeping up with my meds and exercises since then. Currently, I'm on cilacar for my blood pressure and crevast 7510. I used to take ecosprin 7520, but my ENT doctor suggested that it could have been causing my nasal block and sinus issues. I've had two nasal surgeries to remove polyps, and I've been on crevast for the past month. So, I'm just wondering how often I should be getting my ECG, treadmill, echo, and other tests done. I've been doing lab tests every three months and everything's come back normal. Any guidance on this would be really helpful.

it is important to monitor your heart health regularly. Since you have already been taking lab tests once every three months and they have been normal, it is recommended to continue with this frequency for now. Additionally, it is advisable to undergo an ECG, treadmill test, and echo once every 6-12 months to assess your heart function and overall cardiovascular health. However, the frequency of these tests may vary based on your individual health condition and any specific recommendations from your cardiologist.

I'm 27 and dealing with a sugar problem, for which I'm taking Glimepiride and Metformin 11000sr tablets, two daily. Lately, I've noticed my blood pressure is 14090, and my pulse is around 92. I've also been experiencing some pain on the left side of my chest, so I decided to check my ECG. The results showed a sinus rhythm with a normal P axis and a ventricular rate between 50 and 99. There was also some ST elevation, which I've read could be a normal early repolarization pattern, but I'm still worried. The diagnostics mentioned "age 55" even though I'm only 27. Could this be a mistake, or is it something I need to be concerned about? I would appreciate any insight or advice you could give me.

I am sorry to hear about your health concerns. It seems like you are experiencing some cardiac symptoms along with your existing medical conditions. Based on the information you provided, you are currently taking Glimipride and Metformin for your sugar problem. Since you have mentioned that you are experiencing chest pain and have abnormal ECG findings, it is important to address your elevated blood pressure as well. I would recommend that you consult with your healthcare provider for a thorough evaluation and management. In the meantime, to help manage your blood pressure, you can consider taking Amlodipine 5mg once daily. This medication can help lower your blood pressure and reduce the strain on your heart. Additionally, it is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and make lifestyle modifications such as reducing salt intake, maintaining a healthy weight, and engaging in regular physical activity. Please continue to monitor your symptoms closely and follow up with your healthcare provider for further guidance and management.
