I'm really concerned about this recurring middle chest pain I've been experiencing. I had a coronary angiogram done a while back on March 14, 2014, and everything showed normal coronaries, except for this myocardial bridging of the LAD. Can you help me understand what this means? Is this related to my chest pain, and should I be worried about it? Also, is there a validity period for the angiogram results, or is it something I should get checked again after a certain time?

The validity of your coronary angiogram performed on 14.3.14, which showed normal coronary arteries and myocardial bridging of the LAD, can diminish over time due to factors such as the progression of coronary artery disease, changes in symptoms, and continued risk factors like smoking or high blood pressure. Since the angiogram only provides a snapshot in time, it's important to regularly monitor your heart health, especially if you experience new or worsening chest pain. For the most accurate and up-to-date assessment, please consult your cardiologist, who may recommend repeat testing or other diagnostic procedures based on your current condition. Regular follow-ups are crucial to ensure your heart health is effectively managed.

I'm really feeling anxious about my ECG results that came in today. It's showing a low PR interval of 119ms, and I'm not sure if that's something to worry about. The report mentioned Sinus Rhythm and short PR interval. My heart rate is at 90 bpm, P duration 88ms, QRS duration 114ms, QTQTc interval 320393ms. Should I be concerned and start taking medications, or is this in the normal range? Could you explain what these numbers mean? I've attached the ECG photos too.
short PR interval is abnormal.The causes include wolf parkinson white syndrome, acute stress,junctional rhythm,anchanced AV node conduction etc,Patient need not worry , no treatment is required,, It is common in pregnancy and children.
