I'm a bit concerned after my TMT test results. The cardiologist mentioned that everything looked normal, but I noticed that the ST level changed from 2.04 to 1.64 at peak exercise level 3. Is this something I should be worried about, or is it totally normal? I attached the test chart with my report. Would really appreciate your insights on this.

My grandmother has been taking Montek LC for about three months now because she started having a mild cough after her cardiac surgery, due to pleural effusion. I'm just a bit worried about whether there might be any side effects from using this medication for such a long period. Also, can it affect her kidneys in any way?

Montek LC, which combines montelukast and levocetirizine, is generally safe for long-term use, but prolonged use can sometimes cause mild side effects like dry mouth, drowsiness, or dizziness. It is not typically harsh on the kidneys, but it's important to monitor kidney function, especially in older adults, during extended use. Regular follow-ups with her doctor would be helpful.

I'm a bit worried because I recently experienced a sudden increase in my heart rate, and when I got an ECG, it showed something called an ST abnormality. I'm wondering, is this a cause for concern? Does it often show up on ECGs, or should I be more alarmed about it?

ST abnormalities in an ECG can indicate various cardiac conditions. It is important to determine the specific type of ST abnormality (e.g. ST elevation or ST depression) and its location on the ECG. ST abnormalities can be seen in conditions such as myocardial infarction, angina, pericarditis, myocarditis, or electrolyte imbalances. Given your sudden increase in heart rate and the presence of ST abnormalities on your ECG, it is important to further evaluate the underlying cause. Depending on the severity and type of ST abnormality, treatment may include medications such as aspirin, nitroglycerin, beta-blockers, or interventions like angioplasty or surgery. I recommend consulting with a cardiologist for a thorough evaluation and appropriate management.
