I'm really concerned about something and wanted to get your advice. I'm 61 and just had some tests done. They said my LV function is normal with an EF of 60 and no RWMA, but I have trivial MR and Grade 1 LV diastolic dysfunction with concentric LVH. The valves check out fine and there are no clots, vegetation, or pericardial effusion. My chamber dimensions are normal too. But when I did a stress TMT, it showed some significant ST changes in leads II, III, AVf, V4, V6, although I had no arrhythmia or chest pain, and my heart rate and blood pressure responded normally. Should I be worried about these ST changes? What does this all mean for my heart health?

Based on the information provided, it seems like the patient may be experiencing some significant ST changes in specific ECG leads without chest pain. In this case, the patient may benefit from medication to help manage their condition. The patient can be prescribed Aspirin 75mg daily to help reduce the risk of cardiovascular events. Additionally, Atorvastatin 20mg can be prescribed to help lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of further cardiac issues. In addition to these medications, Metoprolol 25mg can be prescribed to help manage the patient's blood pressure and heart rate, especially in the presence of significant ST changes on ECG. It is important for the patient to follow up with their healthcare provider regularly to monitor their condition and adjust their treatment plan as needed.

My brother has been experiencing chest pain for the last three days and is also having trouble breathing. He's even had an endoscopy done. What might be causing these symptoms, and should we be concerned?

Given that your brother has been experiencing chest pain and breathing difficulties for the past three days, it is crucial to seek prompt medical attention. While an endoscopy can help identify gastrointestinal causes such as GERD or ulcers, chest pain combined with breathing problems can also indicate serious conditions like cardiac issues, respiratory infections, or pulmonary problems. It's essential to have a comprehensive evaluation by a healthcare provider, which may include an ECG, chest X-ray, or other diagnostic tests to determine the underlying cause and ensure appropriate treatment. Please take him to the nearest emergency room or consult his healthcare provider immediately.

I'm feeling a bit worried because I've been having this heaviness in my chest, but it's only on the left side. Sometimes there's a bit of pain there too. Plus, my upper back on the left side is hurting as well. It's been going on for about a year now. I did a full body checkup in the first week of January and everything came back normal. What should I do now? Who should I see for this? Are there any specific tests you recommend?

I'm trying to understand my latest ECG report. It mentions "Sinus Rhythm," a normal axis, and a short PR interval. Could this indicate any issues? Also, I'm on Thyronorm 25 mg for the last 3 years, and my TSH level is at 4.8. Does this all sound normal, or should I be concerned?
