I'm trying to understand my latest ECG report. It mentions "Sinus Rhythm," a normal axis, and a short PR interval. Could this indicate any issues? Also, I'm on Thyronorm 25 mg for the last 3 years, and my TSH level is at 4.8. Does this all sound normal, or should I be concerned?

View allI'm trying to make sense of my ECG results, which show a prolonged QT. As a diabetic patient on Metxl 25 mg for high blood pressure, I'm worried about what this means. Could this be a sign of blocked arteries?
Prolonged QT interval on an ECG can be a sign of an abnormal heart rhythm, which can increase the risk of fainting, seizures, or sudden death. In diabetic patients with high blood pressure, it is important to monitor the QT interval closely as certain medications can further prolong it. Metxl 25 mg is likely Metoprolol, which is a beta-blocker commonly used to treat high blood pressure. It is important to discuss the prolonged QT interval with your doctor, as they may consider adjusting your medication or prescribing additional treatments to manage this condition. Prolonged QT interval is not typically a direct symptom of artery blockages, but it is important to address this issue to prevent any potential complications. Regular follow-up with your healthcare provider is recommended to monitor your heart health and adjust your treatment plan accordingly.

I've been wondering if you could help me figure out what's going on because I've been feeling strange lately. Around 12 April, I tested positive for COVID, but luckily, it was mild, and the only real issue was losing my sense of smell, which came back after about 10 days. But for the past 8-10 days, I've been experiencing this weird sensation all over my bodyalmost like heart palpitations, though I'm not entirely sure if that's what it is. It's like I can feel my heartbeat in my stomach, neck, and just about everywhere in my body, like my whole body is pumping. It tends to disappear when I'm doing something else, but comes roaring back when I'm trying to relax. If I focus on it too much, my heart really starts pounding before eventually calming down. It's really unsettling and sometimes makes me feel anxious and on edge. Do you have any idea what might be causing this or what I should do about it?
It sounds like you may be experiencing palpitations and anxiety following your COVID-19 infection. To help with your symptoms, you can try taking Propranolol 20mg twice a day. This medication can help reduce palpitations and anxiety by slowing down your heart rate. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises or mindfulness meditation may also be beneficial in managing your symptoms. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm really worried about my dad. He's been dealing with pain in his left arm for over six years now, and at first, he was diagnosed just with hypertension. But after some more tests, they found out he has angina. The doctor recommended he take medication for about 23 weeks and then get an angiography. I'm wondering if we definitely need to go through with the angiography, or is there another way to handle this? And how serious is his condition?
It is important to follow your doctor's advice regarding the need for angiography, as it is a procedure that can provide valuable information about the condition of the heart and blood vessels. In the meantime, to manage angina, your father can take medications such as Nitroglycerin to relieve chest pain and improve blood flow to the heart. Additionally, medications like Aspirin and Beta-blockers can help reduce the workload on the heart and prevent further complications. It is important to continue monitoring blood pressure and cholesterol levels as well. Angina is a serious condition that requires proper management and monitoring to prevent complications such as heart attack.
