I've been having some health issues that are making me anxious. My ECG today showed a low T wave in V4 and a slight ST depression in V6. I'm not sure what that means, and I'm a bit worried about it. I also tend to get high blood pressure sometimes, and my lipid and cortisol levels are up. What can I do about all this? Should I be getting any more tests done?

Based on your ECG findings of low T wave in V4 and slight ST depression in V6, along with your history of anxiety, high blood pressure, high lipid levels, and high cortisol levels, it is important to further evaluate your cardiac health. I recommend you to consult a cardiologist for a detailed evaluation and management plan. Further tests that may be recommended include: 1. Stress test (Treadmill test) to assess your heart's response to physical activity. 2. Echocardiogram to evaluate the structure and function of your heart. 3. Holter monitor or event monitor to monitor your heart's activity over a period of time. 4. Blood tests to assess your cholesterol levels, blood sugar levels, and other cardiac markers. In the meantime, it is important to manage your anxiety, high blood pressure, high lipid levels, and high cortisol levels. You can consider medications such as Atorvastatin for high cholesterol, Amlodipine for high blood pressure, and Alprazolam for anxiety. However, the specific dosage and duration of these medications should be determined by your healthcare provider after a thorough evaluation.

View allI'm looking at my ECG report, and it mentions "ST-segment elevation anterior borderline." I'm not really sure what that means. Should I be worried about this? Can you explain what's going on?
The ECG report showing ST-segment elevation (anterior) indicates a potential issue with the heart's blood supply. This could be a sign of a heart attack or other cardiac problem. It is important to seek medical attention immediately for further evaluation and treatment. In such cases, medications like aspirin, nitroglycerin, and clopidogrel may be prescribed to help improve blood flow to the heart.

My sister has been feeling sick and weak for months, with chest pain and nausea. It got worse yesterday, so we took her to the hospital. They did an ECG, echo, and chest X-ray. Her echo report shows she has grade 1 diastolic dysfunction. I read this is related to heart failure, but the doctor discharged her, saying everything's fine. Is there something more we should know? Could the doctor be keeping something from us?
Thats unusual at her age but it is reversible,ask her to have a healthy life style good foofd and adequate rest,follow your doctors advice
