I'm experiencing some pain in my left arm for the past few days, and sometimes I feel it in my chest too. I decided to get an ECG done, and it mentions a short PR interval and short QT interval. Could you take a look at it and let me know what I should do next?

Based on the ECG findings of a short PR interval and short QT interval, it may indicate a potential heart condition. It is important to further evaluate this with additional tests and examinations. In the meantime, to help manage the symptoms of left arm pain and chest pain, you can take Acetaminophen 500mg every 6 hours as needed for pain relief. However, it is crucial to follow up with a cardiologist for a comprehensive evaluation and appropriate management.

View allI'm a bit worried about my recent health report. The doctor said I need an ECG before anesthesia, and the results mention a probable left atrial enlargement with a borderline ECG. I'm wondering what this means for my heart health. Should I see a cardiologist? Lately, I've been experiencing mild chest pains and numbness, and I'm a bit overweight, though my blood pressure is normal. I also have a fatty liver and occasionally notice shortness of breath. Do you think these symptoms are related?
Based on your symptoms and the findings in your ECG report, it is important to consult a cardiologist for further evaluation and management. The probable left atrial enlargement and borderline ECG findings may indicate underlying heart issues that need to be addressed. In the meantime, to help with your symptoms, you can take medications like Aspirin for chest pain (if not contraindicated) and Atorvastatin for high cholesterol. Additionally, to manage your fatty liver, you can take Ursodeoxycholic acid. For shortness of breath, you can use an inhaler like Salbutamol as needed. It is also important to make lifestyle changes such as maintaining a healthy weight, regular exercise, and a balanced diet to improve your overall health.

I've been noticing for the past 4 years that my heart occasionally skips a beat or flutters, but it's been happening much more frequently lately. It gets me really anxious each time, even though I dont have any other symptoms apart from the anxiety. Can you guide me on what might be going on?
