I'm really worried about something I came across in my medical report it mentions 'abnormal BR wave progression.' Is this something serious or dangerous? What steps should I consider taking to address or monitor this?

Abnormal ECG findings like abnormal R wave progression can indicate underlying heart conditions. It is important to further evaluate the cause of this abnormality. Treatment may involve medications such as beta blockers like Metoprolol or calcium channel blockers like Amlodipine. Dosage and duration of treatment should be determined by a healthcare professional after a thorough evaluation. Regular follow-up with a cardiologist is recommended to monitor the condition.

I'm really worried about my mom. She had bypass surgery back in September 2022, and every now and then she gets this angina-like pain near the stitches in her chest. It's really unsettling. Plus, she's dealing with type 2 diabetes and thyroid issues too. Can you help me figure out what's going on and what we should do about it?

It is important to manage angina pain effectively, especially after bypass surgery. I recommend she takes Nitroglycerin sublingual tablets as needed for chest pain. The dosage is usually 0.3 to 0.4 mg every 5 minutes for up to three doses. Additionally, she can take Aspirin to help reduce the risk of blood clots and relieve chest pain. The usual dosage is 81mg to 325mg once daily. Since she is diabetic, it's crucial to control her blood sugar levels. She can take Metformin to help manage her diabetes. The usual starting dose is 500mg or 850mg once daily with meals. For her thyroid condition, she can continue taking Levothyroxine to regulate her thyroid hormone levels. The dosage will depend on her TSH levels as determined by her doctor.
