I'm a bit concerned after my recent health check-up. My ECG showed moderate ST depression, but my 2D Echo came out normal. My blood pressure was also 14590. The doctor said it might be due to anxiety and stress. Could this really be the cause, or should I be worried about something else? Any advice would be appreciated.

View allI'm having this persistent pain on the left side of my chest, and I've already seen a cardiologist about it. They had me do a bunch of tests like an ECG, 2D echo, TMT, CT coronary angiography, and even conventional angiography. Everything came back normal, which was a relief. But just a few days ago, the chest pain came back and the ECG now shows a T wave abnormality, possibly anterior ischemia. I'm really worried about what this could mean. Is this something I should be seriously concerned about, and what do you think my next steps should be?
Hello, based on your history and the recent ECG findings showing T wave abnormality suggesting anterior ischemia, it is important to further evaluate the cause of your chest pain. Since your cardiac tests have all come back normal, the T wave abnormality may be due to other factors such as coronary artery spasm, inflammation, or even non-cardiac causes. I recommend discussing with your doctor about starting medication like Nitroglycerin sublingual tablets for immediate relief during chest pain episodes. Additionally, you may benefit from medications like Beta-blockers (e.g. Metoprolol) and Calcium channel blockers (e.g. Amlodipine) to help prevent chest pain episodes. It would also be helpful to consider a referral to a gastroenterologist to rule out any gastrointestinal causes of chest pain, as well as a follow-up with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management. Remember to follow up with your healthcare provider for a personalized treatment plan.

I'm really worried about my mom. She's 49, weighs 78 kg, and is 4.9 ft tall. She recently had this awful left side lower back pain and ended up taking Ultracet on her own. But then she had around 67 vomiting episodes, which freaked us out. We rushed her to the hospital and the ECG showed T wave inversion in the chest leads and left axis deviation. What does all this mean? Should I be really concerned?
It seems like your mother may have experienced side effects from Ultracet. The symptoms of vomiting and ECG changes are concerning. It is important to discontinue Ultracet immediately. For the back pain, she can take a safer alternative like Acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg every 6 hours as needed for pain. However, based on the ECG findings, it is important to consult with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management. The T wave inversion and left axis deviation may indicate cardiac issues that need to be addressed promptly.
