I'm a bit worried after my recent ECG showed a sinus rhythm with an inverted T wave. What could that mean, and how might it affect my heart health?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
The presence of an inverted T wave on an ECG showing sinus rhythm can indicate various underlying issues. In some cases, it may be a normal variant, but it can also be a sign of cardiac ischemia, electrolyte imbalances, or other cardiac conditions. To address this issue, it is important to determine the underlying cause. Treatment may involve managing any underlying conditions, such as correcting electrolyte imbalances or addressing coronary artery disease. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm dealing with high blood pressure around 155105 and have been taking inzit 4 mg once daily as advised by my doctor for the past 10 days, but Im not seeing any improvement. Both of my parents have high BP too, and I work in a software job which means I sit a lot. Does this mean Ill have to be on medication forever, or are there lifestyle changes I can try that might help lower my BP without relying on meds?
Despite taking Inzit 4mg for 10 days, your BP remains high; consider lifestyle modifications to complement medication: regular aerobic exercise (30 minutesday), stress reduction techniques (meditation, yoga), weight management, dietary changes (low sodium, high potassium, DASH diet), increased water intake, and adequate sleep (7-8 hoursnight); also, discuss with your doctor potential adjustments to your medication regimen, such as dosage or additional medications, to achieve better BP control; with consistent lifestyle efforts and medication adherence, it's possible to reduce BP and potentially decrease medication dependence over time.

I've been having some issues lately. I'm a 33-year-old guy, and when I'm just resting, my heart sometimes races up to 120-130 beats per minute. I had an ECG, and they said it's sinus tachycardia, but my echocardiogram came back normal. Even though tests seem alright, I still get this fluttery feeling when my pulse is high. What could this be? Can you give me some advice on what might be going on?
Based on your symptoms of palpitations and feeling flurried when your pulse is high, it sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of anxiety or panic attacks. To help manage these symptoms, I recommend taking Propranolol (Inderal) 10-40mg as needed to help control your heart rate and reduce the feelings of flurriness. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises or mindfulness meditation may also be beneficial in managing your symptoms.
