I'm feeling a bit worried because my ECG came back showing an abnormal sinus rhythm and something about an STT abnormality in V5V6. The report also mentioned left ventricular hypertrophy, and I've been experiencing dizziness and fatigue on and off. Just last Friday, my blood pressure was 150110, but then it dropped to 110130 by Sunday. Does this combination of symptoms and results suggest something serious that I should be concerned about, or could there be a more straightforward explanation? What should my next steps be?

Your ECG results indicate abnormal findings, including ST-T abnormalities in leads V5 and V6, suggesting possible myocardial ischemia or strain, and left ventricular hypertrophy, which may be related to high blood pressure, and your symptoms of dizziness and fatigue, combined with fluctuating blood pressure readings (150110), suggest that you should consult a cardiologist for further evaluation and management to rule out underlying conditions like hypertension, coronary artery disease, or cardiomyopathy.

Ive been noticing some pain in my chest that moves to my left arm and its paired with shortness of breath. It usually happens after Ive had an emotional setback and tends to go away on its own after a while. What could be causing this? Is it something I should be worried about?
Based on your symptoms, it sounds like you may be experiencing episodes of angina. Angina is chest pain or discomfort that occurs when the heart muscle doesn't get enough oxygen-rich blood. In your case, the pain may be triggered by emotional stress. I recommend you to take Nitroglycerin sublingual tablets as needed for chest pain. The usual dose is 0.3 to 0.6 mg every 5 minutes as necessary, up to 3 doses. If the pain persists after taking the medication, please seek immediate medical attention.

When is it okay to stop taking Inderal LA 20 mg? I've been on it for about a month now for anxiety and because my blood pressure was a bit high, around 14085. I've managed to get those under control, so I'm wondering if it's safe to stop the medication. What do you suggest?
Inderal LA 20 mg is a beta-blocker medication used to treat high blood pressure and anxiety. Since you have been taking it for a month and have overcome your anxiety and your blood pressure is now under control, you can consider stopping the medication. However, it is important to consult with your doctor before making any changes to your medication regimen. Your doctor may recommend tapering off the medication gradually to avoid any potential withdrawal symptoms.
