I've been diagnosed with triple vessel disease, and they recommended angioplasty. I'm really hoping for a less invasive approach, like EECP or chelation therapy, but I can't find any doctors willing to even discuss these alternatives. I'm feeling a bit stuck and just wondering what other options might be out there for me. Would love any advice or insights on possible treatments besides surgery.

I'm a bit worried because I got an abnormal ECG report. It mentioned something about "RS inversion" in the area between V1 and V2. Can you help me understand what this means? Should I be concerned about this finding on my ECG?
In the ECG report, the findings indicate: 1. Sinus rhythm 2. RS inversion in the area between V1 and V2 The RS inversion in the anterior leads V1 and V2 could be indicative of various conditions such as myocardial infarction, myocardial ischemia, or other cardiac issues. It is important to further evaluate this finding with additional tests and consultations with a cardiologist for proper management. I recommend consulting with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management.

Is it a big issue if I have cardiac conduction defects like PVC and PVAs? My May 2d echo came back normal, but the ECG still shows PVCs. Should I be worried about this?
Having cardiac conduction defects such as PVCs (Premature Ventricular Contractions) and PVAs (Premature Atrial Contractions) can sometimes indicate an underlying heart issue. While PVCs and PVAs are common and can be benign in many cases, they can also be associated with certain heart conditions. Since your 2D echo is normal, it is a good sign that the structure of your heart is normal. However, the presence of PVCs on ECG warrants further evaluation to determine the underlying cause and assess the overall heart function. In terms of medication, if your PVCs are symptomatic or concerning, your doctor may prescribe antiarrhythmic medications such as Flecainide or Propafenone to help regulate your heart rhythm. The dosage and duration of treatment will depend on your individual case and should be determined by your healthcare provider. Regular follow-up with a cardiologist is important to monitor your heart health and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan.
