I'm a bit concerned because my ECG showed some middling left axis deviation and my cholesterol levels aren't great either. On top of that, I've been having this back pain that seems to radiate to my hand. Could these issues be related somehow? Should I be worried about any underlying health problems connecting these symptoms? Any advice on what steps I should take next?

Based on your description of middling left axis deviation on ECG, high cholesterol levels, and radiating back pain to your hand, it is important to address these issues. For middling left axis deviation on ECG, it is recommended to consult a cardiologist for further evaluation and management. For high cholesterol levels, you can start taking Atorvastatin (brand name Lipitor) at a dose of 10-20 mg once daily to help lower your cholesterol levels. For your back pain radiating to your hand, you can take Ibuprofen (brand name Advil) at a dose of 400 mg every 4-6 hours as needed for pain relief. Additionally, you may benefit from physical therapy to address the underlying cause of your back pain. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for a comprehensive evaluation and personalized treatment plan.

View allI recently did a master health check-up and found my LDL cholesterol is at 120. The ECG shows "sinus rhythm incomplete right bundle branch block." The doctor prescribed Arvast 10 mg and suggested I start walking. I noticed my MCV is at 54, lymphocytes at 45, ALT in the liver function test is 51, and serum urea is 15. Does everything look normal in the report, especially with the ECG?
may not necessarily indicate a serious issue. As for your medication, ARVAST 10 Mg is a common medication used to lower LDL cholesterol levels. Additionally, maintaining a regular walking routine as advised by your doctor can also help improve your overall cardiovascular health. Regarding your other test results, a MCV of 54 is within the normal range. A lymphocyte count of 45 is also within normal limits. An ALT level of 51 is slightly elevated, which may indicate some liver inflammation or damage. For this, you may consider taking medication to improve liver function.
