I'm really concerned about this report I got saying there's an "abnormal ECG" with an "SCT wave abnormality" and something about "considering inferior ischemia." I'm an ASD device patient, and I'm not sure what all this means for me. Could you help explain it and let me know if I should be worried?

View allI've had an echo done several times and each time it showed trace tricuspid regurgitation, even as recent as two months ago and again today. Is there a way to make this situation normal? Could it possibly resolve on its own?
Trace tricuspid regurgitation is a common finding on echocardiograms and is usually not a cause for concern. In most cases, it does not require any specific treatment and often resolves on its own. However, it is important to manage any underlying conditions that may be contributing to the regurgitation. You can try to improve your heart health by maintaining a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise and a balanced diet. If you have any concerns, you can consult with your doctor about potential treatment options.

I'm really worried because my heart rate seems to shoot up when I'm stressed. Sometimes it even hits between 160 to 180 bpm. What can I do to get it back to normal? Any tips on how to reduce my heartbeat when this happens?
Increased heart rate due to tension can be concerning. To help reduce your heart rate, you can try deep breathing exercises and relaxation techniques. Additionally, you can take a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol at a starting dose of 25mg once daily. It can help lower your heart rate and reduce the effects of adrenaline on your heart. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new medication.

I'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.
