I'm 26 and I've been having anxiety symptoms. A couple of months ago, I experienced episodes of sinus tachycardia, and the ECG showed sinus tachycardia with ST and T wave depression in leads II, III, and AVF. I've had more ECGs since then with similar results, but my 2D echo was normal. My doctor suggested a TMT, which returned borderline positive with a low likelihood of significant CAD. During the TMT, METS was 8.8, BP was 15080, and the max heart rate was 187. I didn't feel any chest pain during the exercise. Do you think an angiogram is necessary, and what could be causing those ST and T wave changes?

View allI've been noticing that my blood pressure levels fluctuate between 13090 and 14095, and they tend to be higher in the evenings. I'm currently on Telmisartan 40 mg and take it every morning.

I recently went for a routine check-up and my ECG showed a heart rate of 106. It was marked as an abnormal ECG. Now I'm worried about this result. Could you tell me if this is something I should be concerned about, or is it normal for my age?
A heart rate of 106 beats per minute on an ECG can be considered slightly elevated, but it may not always indicate a serious issue. It is important to consider other factors such as your age, medical history, and any symptoms you may be experiencing. In some cases, a heart rate of 106 may be within normal limits, especially during physical activity or times of stress. However, if you are concerned about your ECG results, it is advisable to consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and guidance. They may recommend monitoring your heart rate, lifestyle modifications, or medications if necessary.

Can we avoid going through angioplasty even though there are two clots in the heart? The patient seems fine, so I'm wondering if we could just start rehab without surgery.
Angioplasty may be necessary to treat the clotting in the heart to prevent any potential complications. However, if the patient is stable and asymptomatic, a conservative approach can be considered. It is important to closely monitor the patient's condition and follow a strict medication regimen. Rehabilitation can be started under the supervision of a healthcare provider. Medications such as antiplatelets (e.g. Clopidogrel) and anticoagulants (e.g. Warfarin) may be prescribed to manage the clotting. Regular follow-up with a cardiologist is essential to assess the need for any further interventions.
