Question 1

I've got some concerns about a recent ECG reading. It showed a mild STT change, and my heart rate was at 128. Is this something I should be worried about? Could the tachycardia be causing the STT change?

Accepted Answer

Mild ST-T changes in an ECG can be non-specific and may not always indicate a serious issue. Yes, tachycardia can cause ST-T changes due to the increased heart rate. A heart rate of 128 in an ECG may be considered tachycardia, which can be a concern depending on the underlying cause and symptoms. To address this, you can take a beta-blocker like Metoprolol 25mg to help control the heart rate and reduce the risk of further complications.

Question 2

I'm really worried about my mom. Her blood pressure this morning was 16090, and she's gained 45 kgs in the last 7 months. She doesn't show any other symptoms, but should I be concerned? Do you think she should start on any medication, or is there som...

Accepted Answer

High blood pressure (hypertension) can lead to serious health issues if left untreated. Given your mother's blood pressure reading of 16090, it is considered high and should be monitored closely. Since she has also gained weight recently, it is important to address this as well to help lower her blood pressure. I recommend starting with lifestyle modifications such as regular exercise, a healthy diet low in sodium and saturated fats, and weight loss if needed. Additionally, she can start taking an antihypertensive medication such as Losartan 50mg once daily to help lower her blood pressure. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional for proper evaluation and monitoring.

Question 5

I took an ECG and 2D Echo test today and got some numbers that are worrying me a bit. My EDV is 83ml, ESV is 28ml, and SV is 55ml, which apparently are below normal. Also, my IVSs ivsd LVPWD measurements were on the higher end of normal limits. Is th...

Accepted Answer

The values of EDV (End-Diastolic Volume), ESV (End-Systolic Volume), and SV (Stroke Volume) from your 2D Echo test indicate that your heart's pumping function may be below normal. The IVSs (Interventricular Septum thickness in systole), IVSd (Interventricular Septum thickness in diastole), and LVPWD (Left Ventricular Posterior Wall thickness in diastole) being on the higher end of normal limits may suggest some thickening of the heart walls. Based on these findings, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management. Depending on the underlying cause, they may recommend medications such as ACE inhibitors like Enalapril or Beta-blockers like Metoprolol to help improve your heart function. The dosage will vary based on your individual condition, so please consult your healthcare provider for personalized recommendations.

Question 6

I've been dealing with these palpitations for the past three years. I've gone through all the heart-related tests like ECG and 2Decho, and everything seems to be normal. I recovered from jaundice about five years ago, and I don't smoke or drink or ha...

Accepted Answer

Considering your symptoms and the ineffectiveness of propranolol, you may benefit from a calcium channel blocker such as Verapamil. I recommend taking Verapamil 120mg twice daily to help control your palpitations and regulate your heart rate. Additionally, practicing stress-reducing techniques and maintaining a healthy lifestyle can also help manage your symptoms.
