I'm really concerned about my dad's health. His recent report showed that his ejection fraction is at 38 when it's supposed to be around 50. He's having trouble with breathing too. Can you tell me how serious this is and what kind of treatments or precautions we should be considering?

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?

Thats normal no need to worry maintain healthy lifestyle
