I'm really worried because my doctor said I have IRBBB on my ECG and that it's nothing to be concerned about. I'm 40 now and was fit until my early 30s. Will this affect my future life? I'm feeling really tense about it.

Having incomplete right bundle branch block (IRBBB) on your ECG is usually not a cause for concern, especially if your doctor has reassured you about it. It is often considered a benign finding. However, if you are feeling tense and anxious about it, it's important to address your concerns. To help manage your anxiety, you can consider relaxation techniques, exercise, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle. If your anxiety persists, you may also speak to your doctor about it. In terms of your future life, IRBBB itself typically does not have a significant impact on your overall health or longevity. As long as you continue to follow a healthy lifestyle and attend regular check-ups with your doctor, you should be able to maintain your well-being. If you have any further concerns or symptoms, it's always best to discuss them with your healthcare provider for personalized advice and guidance.

Sometimes it just goes away on its own, but other times drinking water or taking Omeprazole 20mg seems to help. What could be causing this, and should I be worried?

I'm really worried because I'm having trouble breathing and there's a tightness in my chest, plus my left hand is hurting. I did an HRCT Thorax and it came back normal, but my ECG shows a poor R wave. I'm attaching the report if you could take a look. My doctor prescribed Defza 24, Moxif 400, and Doxt SL 100, but I'm not feeling any better. I also notice this weird sound in my chest whenever I try to cough, even though no cough is actually coming up. Can you help me understand what's going on?

The HRCT thorax showing normal results is a good sign, indicating that there are no major abnormalities in your chest area. However, the ECG showing a poor R wave may indicate some issues with your heart's electrical activity. The symptoms of breathing difficulty, chest tightness, and left hand pain could be related to cardiac issues. The medications prescribed to you are as follows: 1. Defza 24 (Deflazacort) - This is a corticosteroid that helps reduce inflammation in the body. The usual dosage is 24 mg per day. 2. Moxif 400 (Moxifloxacin) - This is an antibiotic that is used to treat bacterial infections. The usual dosage is 400 mg once daily. 3. Doxt SL 100 (Doxycycline) - This is also an antibiotic that is commonly used to treat various bacterial infections. The usual dosage is 100 mg once daily. It is important to continue taking these medications as prescribed by your doctor. However, if you are not feeling better and experiencing chest sounds when trying to cough, it is advisable to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation. It is possible that additional tests or medications may be needed to address your symptoms effectively.
