I'm Manoj and I'm 30 years old. I've been taking Rozavel F because I was diagnosed with high cholesterol. My LDL is 147, HDL is 32, and triglycerides are 240. I recently had an ECG, and the results showed a borderline ECG and an anteroseptal T wave abnormality that's non-specific. Should I be concerned about these findings? What steps should I take next?

View allI'm a 36-year-old unmarried woman with a slim build and usually pretty active, but lately due to lockdown, Ive been sitting and working a lot. Today, I decided to do some cleaning, like mopping and sweeping, and afterwards, I started having really strong palpitations and felt restless, especially around my neck where the carotid artery is. I'm still experiencing palpitations with any physical work and feel a bit breathless because of them. I don't have diabetes or thyroid issues, but after looking it up online, Im worried it might be a heart attack. My citys still in lockdown, so I cant visit a doctor, and I'm scared something serious is going on. Can you advise on what might be happening and what I should do?
It sounds like you are experiencing palpitations and restlessness after doing physical work. These symptoms can be concerning, but it is important not to jump to conclusions like a heart attack without proper evaluation. It is possible that the increased physical activity after a period of inactivity is causing these symptoms. To help alleviate your symptoms, you can try taking a rest and lying down in a comfortable position. Make sure to stay hydrated and avoid any stimulants like caffeine. If the symptoms persist or worsen, you can take a tablet of propranolol 10mg for palpitations. However, if you continue to feel unwell or if the symptoms are severe, it is important to seek medical attention. I would recommend monitoring your symptoms closely and if they continue or worsen, please seek medical help as soon as possible

I'm really worried about the increase in heart attack deaths among the younger generation and folks over 40, especially in places like the Gulf countries and India during these COVID times. What's causing this rise in heart issues? Are there specific factors related to the pandemic that are making heart conditions worse in these areas? It feels like something has changed recently, and I'm trying to understand what's going on.
The increased death due to heart attacks among youngsters and people above 40 during the COVID-19 pandemic in Gulf countries and India can be attributed to various factors. Stress, lack of physical activity, unhealthy diet, and disruption in regular healthcare services are some of the key contributors. Additionally, the fear of contracting COVID-19 may have deterred individuals from seeking timely medical attention for heart-related symptoms, leading to complications and increased mortality rates. To address this issue, it is important to prioritize heart health by maintaining a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise and a balanced diet. In cases where individuals have existing heart conditions or risk factors, it is crucial to continue with prescribed medications and follow-up appointments with healthcare providers. If experiencing any concerning symptoms such as chest pain or shortness of breath, it is essential to seek medical help promptly. In terms of medication, individuals with heart conditions may be prescribed medications such as Aspirin for blood thinning, Beta-blockers to reduce blood pressure, and Statins to lower cholesterol levels. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage and regimen as advised by a healthcare professional.

I've been having this subtle pain and discomfort around my ribs, and it's really starting to give me anxiety and hypertension. I've already done an ECG, TST, and some blood tests, but everything came back normal. I've seen a couple of doctors, and they mentioned it's probably related to rib pain, but it feels more serious to me. Is there any specific X-ray or test I should be looking into?
