I'm a bit worried about my ECG results. It showed a mild left axis deviation and some T wave abnormalities with a kind of flat wave. Could you help me understand what that might mean? Should I be concerned about these findings?

I'm a bit confused about how often someone should get a 2D Echo and ECG if they're feeling perfectly fine. Should it be done once a year or more? And what if someone starts showing symptoms; how does that change things? Would love to get a bit more clarity on this.

For a healthy person without any symptoms, it is generally recommended to do a 2D Echo and ECG once every 1-2 years for routine screening. However, if you are experiencing symptoms such as chest pain, palpitations, shortness of breath, or dizziness, it is important to consult with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and appropriate testing frequency.

I'm trying to figure out how long the results of a treadmill test (TMT) are valid. If I keep up a pretty active lifestyle, when would be a good time to consider getting another TMT done for just a regular check-up? Would love any advice on that!

Alternatives include procaine benzylpenicillin, peniben LA 12, PENCOM 12 Injection etc .
