I'm 27 and I'm having some heart palpitations. My ECG results mention 803 sinus tachycardia and 601 T abnormality with a flat T. Can you explain what this means? I'm pretty worried and would really appreciate some clarity.

I'm really worried about my heart. I've been having heart palpitations for the past six months, and it's happened six times already. Just a few days ago, I woke up with my heart racing at 159 BPM. I went for an ECG, and the report said Sinus tachycardia with a heart rate of 139. My cardiologist said my ECHO 2d test was normal and prescribed me Cardarone 100mg and Petril Beta 10 for a month. But just two days ago, it happened again - I woke up with a rapid heartbeat of 125 BPM. I went for another ECG, and that one was normal, too. I even did a thyroid profile test, and it came back normal. When I'm trying to sleep, I can hear my heart pounding so loudly, and if I lie on my chest, it feels even worse. It's really uncomfortable. What should I do now? Should I stay on the medicine, or should I go in for more tests?

In your case, since you have already consulted a cardiologist and undergone tests like ECG and 2D ECHO which came out normal, the medications prescribed to you are appropriate for managing your symptoms. You should continue taking TAB Cardarone 100mg and Petril Bata 10 as prescribed by your doctor. TAB Cardarone helps in controlling irregular heartbeats, while Petril Bata helps in reducing anxiety which can sometimes exacerbate palpitations. If you are still experiencing discomfort and palpitations, you may consider discussing with your cardiologist about adjusting the dosage of the medications or exploring other treatment options. Additionally, you may benefit from lifestyle modifications such as reducing stress, avoiding stimulants like caffeine, and maintaining a healthy sleep routine to help manage your symptoms. It is important to follow up with your cardiologist regularly to monitor your condition and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan.

I'm really worried about my heart's LVEF, which is at 34%. I'm 48 years old and not dealing with sugar, blood pressure, or obesity. I'm trying to understand what I can do for treatment and how this might impact how long I can live. Can you provide some guidance on this?

With an LVEF of 34%, it is important to focus on medications that can help improve heart function. One common medication used is Carvedilol, which is a beta-blocker. The recommended dosage for Carvedilol in this case would be 6.25mg to 25mg twice daily. Additionally, an ACE inhibitor like Lisinopril can also be beneficial. The typical dosage for Lisinopril would be 5mg to 40mg once daily. It is difficult to predict an exact survival time as it depends on various factors such as overall health, adherence to treatment, and lifestyle choices. However, with proper medical management and lifestyle modifications, individuals with an LVEF of 34% can live for many years. Regular follow-ups with a cardiologist are essential to monitor progress and adjust treatment as needed.
