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.

View allI've been experiencing heart palpitations, shortness of breath, and feeling lightheaded since Sunday. I've also gained a bit of weight and recently had an argument with my husband. I have PCOS and I'm currently taking metformin. Could these symptoms be related to my condition or medication? Should I be concerned?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of anxiety or a possible cardiac issue. Given your history of PCOS and current medication, metformin, it is important to consider any potential interactions. I recommend you to consult with a doctor for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, to help alleviate your symptoms, you can try taking a beta-blocker such as Metoprolol at a low dose of 25mg once daily. Additionally, practicing stress-reducing techniques such as deep breathing exercises or mindfulness meditation may also be beneficial. Remember to prioritize self-care and seek medical attention if your symptoms worsen or persist.

I recently had an ECS done, and the report mentioned it was an "unconfirmed report." I'm just wondering, what exactly does this mean? Should I be concerned, or is everything likely okay?
