I'm a bit worried about my recent ECG results that show IRBBB, but my 2D echo came back normal. I don't have any family history of heart disease, so I'm wondering if my heart's in good shape. Is it okay for me to hit the gym regularly? I already walk more than 10,000 steps a day and jog for about 5 minutes.

based on your description of having an Incomplete Right Bundle Branch Block (IRBBB) on ECG but a normal 2D echo and no family history of heart disease, it is likely that your heart is healthy and normal. IRBBB itself may not necessarily indicate a heart abnormality, especially if the 2D echo is normal. You can continue with your daily activities like walking more than 10K steps and 5 minutes of jogging. However, if you have any concerns or symptoms like chest pain, shortness of breath, or dizziness during exercise, it is advisable to consult a cardiologist for further evaluation. As a precautionary measure, you can consider taking low-dose aspirin (75-100mg) daily to reduce the risk of cardiovascular events.

View allMy heart rate is usually over 100 and I've been having trouble sleeping too. I recently had septoplasty surgery could these issues be related? What could be causing the high heart rate and sleep problems?
It's possible that your high heart rate and sleep problems are related to your recent septoplasty surgery, although it's not the only possibility. Both could be influenced by factors related to the surgery, such as the recovery process or any underlying issues addressed by the procedure

I'm lying down and my heart rate is around 54, but when I stand up it's 86. Is it normal for the heart rate to be under 60? My echo and TMT tests came back normal, but when I get up from bed, I feel dizzy. Should I be worried or is this something that happens often?
A heart rate of 54 beats per minute when lying down can be normal, especially if you are physically fit or athletic, as lower heart rates are common in these individuals. However, the dizziness you experience when standing up could indicate a condition known as orthostatic hypotension, where your blood pressure drops upon standing, leading to dizziness. It is good that your echocardiogram (echo) and treadmill test (TMT) are normal, but I recommend discussing these symptoms with your healthcare provider. They may suggest additional tests, such as measuring your blood pressure and heart rate changes with position changes, to diagnose and manage the underlying cause of your dizziness.

I'm really confused about something on my chest X-ray. It mentioned "cardiovascular markings," and I'm not entirely sure what that actually indicates. Is this something serious? Should I start taking any specific meds or consider certain treatments? I'd really appreciate some advice on what steps I should take next. Thanks for shedding some light on this!
