I'm really puzzled right now. My EKG keeps coming back abnormal, but the cardiologist didnt mention any problems before. I've started having palpitations, and there's been a lot of stress in my life lately. I decided to get a second opinion from a different cardiologist, but I'm confused. My EKG shows an incomplete right bundle branch block and a left anterior fascicular block. What does that even mean? My blood work is fine, my blood pressure is always excellent, and I dont have high cholesterol. Can you help me understand this?

I've been dealing with some annoying symptoms lately like this slight headache, stiff muscles around my neck, facial pain, and just feeling really tired all the time. I started taking some meds initially like amchek 5mg, then switched to amlong 5, and now I'm on omlesar 10 with nebicard 2.5mg. But for a few weeks, I stopped them, and yesterday my blood pressure shot up to 190138. So I got back on just omlesar, but my blood pressure is still pretty high at 180104. What should I do?

It seems like you are experiencing high blood pressure despite restarting omlesar. In this case, you may benefit from adding another medication to better control your blood pressure. I recommend adding a diuretic such as Lasix (furosemide) 40mg to help reduce the fluid in your body and lower your blood pressure. Please consult your healthcare provider for proper evaluation and prescription of this medication. Additionally, it's important to maintain a healthy lifestyle with a low-sodium diet, regular exercise, and stress management techniques to help manage your blood pressure.

I'm a bit worried and curious if taking too much blood pressure medication might cause an abnormal EKG. Could there be something else causing this, or is it really the medication?

yes. Stress and exercises are other factors.

I recently got a full body checkup and I'm a bit concerned about my cholesterol levels. Some of them are in the normal range, but others are close to being high. At 26, should I be worried about this? Is it a major concern for someone my age?

"Based on your full body checkup report, it is important to monitor your cholesterol levels closely, especially at the age of 26. To help manage your cholesterol levels, you can consider taking Atorvastatin (brand name Lipitor) at a dosage of 10mg to 20mg daily. Additionally, incorporating lifestyle changes such as a healthy diet and regular exercise can also be beneficial in maintaining healthy cholesterol levels."
