I'm really confused about my ECG results. I used to have a left axis deviation at 30, but today my ECG showed an extreme axis deviation. I repeated the test, and it went back to showing a left axis at 30 again. Is it possible that there's a problem with the machine, or should I be worried about my heart health? I'm attaching the echocardiogram, so please let me know what you think.

View allI'm feeling some discomfort with a bit of pain and gas on my left side. I've attached my ECG report. Could you take a look at it and let me know if everything seems normal? Also, how can I tell the difference between gas issues and heart-related pain?
To distinguish between gas pain and heart pain, gas pain is often described as a sharp, jabbing pain that may move around and is usually accompanied by bloating or burping. Heart pain, on the other hand, is typically a dull, pressure-like discomfort that may radiate to the arm, neck, or jaw, and is often associated with other symptoms like shortness of breath or sweating. If you are experiencing persistent or severe chest pain, it is important to seek medical attention for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, you can try taking an over-the-counter antacid like Tums for gas relief.

I've noticed that my blood pressure has gone up a couple of times in the last month after eating salty foods, though most days it's normal even if I've had salt. I'm overweight by around 12-14 kgs, and I'm curious if that's contributing to this issue. Like yesterday, after having salty tea, I got a bad headache at the back of my head, and when I checked my BP with our home digital machine, it read 14090. I drank some water, and it seemed to go back to normal. I'm wondering, how accurate are those home BP machines anyway? My lifestyle is pretty sedentary because of my online work. I talked to a doctor, and he said it's not the right time to start BP medications. What do you suggest?
Yes change your routine and have regular physical activity and consume healthy diet,have a regular follow up with your doctor

I'm a bit confused and worried about my recent 2D echo results. It says my EF is 56, but everything else seems normal. Is this EF number something to be concerned about or is it within the normal range? Just wanted to make sure I understand what this means for my heart health.
Your EF (Ejection Fraction) of 56% is considered normal. An EF between 50-70% is generally considered normal for a healthy adult. No treatment is usually required for a normal EF.
