I've got some concerns about my latest ECG results. It mentioned something about abnormal R wave progression. Is that something to worry about or can it be considered normal? I've been feeling a bit out of breath when I climb about 23 stairs. What should I do about this? I'd really appreciate some guidance.

I'm really concerned about my ECG report that shows poor R wave progression in V3. I've been dealing with this pain in my left leg and a bit of chest pain. Could you help me understand what this means and what kind of treatment I might need?

Your ECG report showing poor R wave progression in V3 may indicate a possible heart issue. The left leg pain and slight chest pain could be related to poor blood circulation or heart problems. I recommend you to take Aspirin to prevent blood clotting and improve blood flow. Additionally, you can take Atorvastatin to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart problems. Please consult a cardiologist for further evaluation and management.

I'm experiencing this chest heaviness and heavy breathing whenever I walk or do any small physical activities, and it's been going on for about three weeks now. I already went to my GP about two weeks ago and was on Azithromycin for three days, but it didnt really help. Yesterday, I started feeling some chest pain right in the center, and when I consulted a cardiologist online, they said it wasn't cardiac pain. But this morning after a little activity post-breakfast, I felt the same heaviness and then a dull pain in the center of my chest. It only lasts about 2 seconds and then disappears for a minute. The pain doesn't get worse when I breathe deeply either. Just wondering what's going on and what I should do next. Any thoughts?

take one pain killer and one antacid
