View allI'm looking at my ECG report which mentions I've got LVH and arrhythmia. I've been feeling quite tired whenever I climb stairs. Could you help me understand what this means?
Based on the information you provided, it seems like you have left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and arrhythmia as mentioned in your ECG report. These conditions can indeed cause symptoms such as fatigue, especially during physical exertion like climbing stairs. To manage these conditions, you may be prescribed medications such as Atenolol (50mg) for arrhythmia and Lisinopril (10mg) for LVH. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

my mom has a heart block and one artery is blocked is angioplasty really needed or are there other options we can try first

Angioplasty is a procedure that can help improve blood flow to the heart by opening blocked or narrowed arteries. However, it's not always the first, or even the best, choice, and there are other approaches that can be tried
