Question 3

I've got my ECG results, and it mentions left axis deviation and early repolarization. I'm 21 and male, and I'm really confused about what this means for my health. Should I be worried about being medically unfit? What should I do next?

Accepted Answer

You should show your ECG report to a physician to get a clearer picture of your condition. Left axis deviation can be seen in various conditions, such as left ventricular hypertrophy, left bundle branch block and even inferior wall myocardial infarction. Early repolarisation refers to ST segment elevation with no underlying cause.

I've been really worried about my heart ever since last year when I started having these chest and left arm pains. I got a TMT and echo done back then, and they showed everything was normal, but I'm still having these pains out of nowhere. It's like ...

Accepted Answer

Since your TMT and echo tests were normal last year, it is less likely to be related to a heart condition. It is possible that your symptoms are more related to anxiety and panic attacks. I recommend discussing with your doctor about the possibility of starting an anti-anxiety medication such as Sertraline (Zoloft) at a low dose initially, along with counseling or therapy to address your fears and anxiety. Additionally, you can consider taking a low dose of Propranolol (Inderal) as needed for chest pain and palpitations. However, it is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management of your symptoms.

Question 5

I'm worried about left ventricle failure and what steps are involved in managing it. How do I go about registering for a heart transplant and who should I contact? Could you guide me through this, please?

Accepted Answer

Left ventricular failure is a serious condition where the heart's left ventricle is unable to pump blood effectively to the rest of the body. Treatment for left ventricular failure typically involves a combination of medications such as ACE inhibitors (e.g. Enalapril) and beta blockers (e.g. Metoprolol) to help improve heart function and manage symptoms. In some cases, a heart transplant may be recommended for severe cases of left ventricular failure. To register for a heart transplant, you would need to contact a specialized heart transplant center or hospital that performs such procedures. Some well-known centers for heart transplants include Cleveland Clinic, Mayo Clinic, and Johns Hopkins Hospital. It is important to consult with a cardiologist or heart failure specialist to discuss your options and determine the best course of action for your specific situation.
