I've been going through my routine check-up results, and my ECG report mentions sinus tachycardia with some changes in the ST-T section. I'm a 29-year-old guy, and aside from some allergy issues, I don't have any chronic health problems. Should I be worried about these results? Is it considered normal, or is it something I need to look deeper into?

Sinus tachycardia is a normal increase in heart rate that is often a response to exercise, stress, or illness. In your case, since you have mentioned that you have no known chronic diseases other than allergy problems, it is important to consider other factors that may be causing the sinus tachycardia. The changes in the ST-T segment could be indicative of various conditions, such as myocardial ischemia or electrolyte imbalances. I recommend consulting with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, you can take a low dose of beta-blockers such as Metoprolol 25mg once daily to help control your heart rate. Additionally, monitoring your electrolyte levels and ensuring proper hydration may also be beneficial.

View allI'm really worried and need some guidance. I know someone who's a 20-year-old female, not married, and she has 50 percent artery blockage. She's also experiencing breathlessness and chest pain when she's physically active. She doesn't have diabetes or hypertension, so we're confused about whether she needs stenting or not. What would you suggest?
A person with 50 percent artery blockage who is experiencing breathlessness and chest pain during physical activity may benefit from stenting. For this individual, I recommend considering the use of aspirin 75mg once daily to prevent blood clot formation and atorvastatin 20mg once daily to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of further blockages. However, the final decision on stenting should be made after consulting with a cardiologist. It's important to also make lifestyle modifications such as regular exercise, a healthy diet, and avoiding smoking to improve heart health."

I'm really confused about what's going on with my heart. My ECG came back positive, but my TMT, Echo, and CT Coronary Angiogram are all normal. I constantly feel this pain that seems to start in my left hand and move to my chest. What could this mean? Should I be worried about this combination of results and symptoms?
The pain radiating from your left hand to your chest could be indicative of musculoskeletal pain, such as costochondritis or muscle strain. I would recommend taking over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen or ibuprofen for pain relief. Additionally, applying a warm compress to the affected area and practicing relaxation techniques may also help alleviate your symptoms. If the pain persists or worsens, it is advisable to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
