I've got my ECG results, and it mentions left axis deviation and early repolarization. I'm 21 and male, and I'm really confused about what this means for my health. Should I be worried about being medically unfit? What should I do next?

You should show your ECG report to a physician to get a clearer picture of your condition. Left axis deviation can be seen in various conditions, such as left ventricular hypertrophy, left bundle branch block and even inferior wall myocardial infarction. Early repolarisation refers to ST segment elevation with no underlying cause.

I originally thought it might just be gas and tried having soda with lime several times, which only relieved it briefly. Could there be something else going on, or is it really just related to gas? Could you help me figure this out?

I've been dealing with palpitations and high blood pressure diagnosed at 140 over 90 around four months ago. They did an ECG and ECHO, and those came back normal. I was prescribed Telma 20 and Ivabradine 5mg for the BP and palpitations. I recently stopped taking Telma 20 for a few days to keep an eye on my BP, and it settled at a constant 130 over 76. Do you think I should stop taking the BP meds altogether, or is it better to keep going with them? I've also made some lifestyle and diet changes. What do you suggest?

Yes you can stop the drug and check your BP daily for 2 weeks if its maintained normal,you can pause the drug an dcontinue healthy life style
