I'm a bit worried after getting some chest pain, and my doctor did a 2D Echo test and now suggests an angiogram. I'm really concerned if an angioplasty is absolutely necessary after that? Could you help me understand if the angioplasty is always needed after an angiogram or if there are situations where it's not required?

I'm worried about my pulse rate, which tends to be pretty high, between 100 and 120, and sometimes even hits 130 or more. I just got over dengue and noticed my pulse was between 90 and 110 during that time. Should I see a cardiologist right away, or is it okay to give my body a few days to rest first?
It is important to monitor your pulse rate closely, especially after recovering from dengue. A persistently high pulse rate can be a sign of an underlying issue that may need medical attention. In your case, since your pulse rate is consistently high and has even increased after recovering from dengue, it would be advisable to consult a cardiologist sooner rather than later. The cardiologist can evaluate your condition, perform any necessary tests, and recommend appropriate treatment. It is better to address any potential concerns promptly to ensure your heart health is optimal.

I'm really worried about my dad. His ECG came back showing sinus mode tachycardia and something called middling left axis deviation. What exactly do these mean? Is it something we should be seriously concerned about? Hes also been experiencing some pain on the left side of his chest. Could these symptoms be related?
Ecg shows Sinus mode tachycardia and Middling left axis deviation. Sinus mode tachycardia refers to a faster than normal heart rate originating from the sinus node in the heart. Middling left axis deviation indicates a slight deviation in the electrical activity of the heart towards the left side. These findings can be seen in conditions like anxiety, dehydration, fever, or heart conditions. It is important to correlate these findings with your symptoms and clinical examination. For your father's chest pain on the left side, it is crucial to rule out any cardiac issues. He should seek immediate medical attention for a proper evaluation, which may include further tests like an ECG, blood tests, and possibly imaging studies. The treatment will depend on the underlying cause of the chest pain.
