My creatinine level is at 1.3, which I understand is borderline. I'm considering going for coronary angiography but I'm a bit worried. Is it safe to proceed, and if so, what precautions should I be aware of?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
If creatinine is at the borderline level of 1.3, it is important to assess the overall kidney function before proceeding with coronary angiography. Precautions that should be taken include ensuring adequate hydration before and after the procedure, monitoring kidney function closely, and considering the use of contrast media with lower nephrotoxicity. Additionally, medications such as N-acetylcysteine and sodium bicarbonate may be considered to help protect the kidneys during the procedure.

View allI'm trying to make sense of my Echo Report, and it's causing me a bit of concern. It mentions things like a normal LV with normal systolic function and no segmental wall motion abnormalities, which I think sounds good. However, what got my attention was the mention of mild PAH and a mild TR. I'm a bit worried if the fast heart rate during the test, which was likely due to my anxiety, might have affected the results and led to a possible misdiagnosis of PAH. I mean, I haven't really had any symptoms other than a brief episode of PVC and sometimes a slightly fast heart rate. My resting rate stays between 50-65 BPM. I'm hoping for a little clarity on whether these findings are something to be concerned about. Can fast heart rate really make a difference in diagnosis, or am I misunderstanding things here?
normal.

What does a borderline ECG with an unconfirmed diagnosis mean on an ECG report? Is it something I should be worried about? My heart rate is 93, PR is 99, QRS duration is 82, QT is 330, and QTC is 411. Could you help me understand what these numbers indicate?
Borderline ECG unconfirmed diagnosis means that there are some findings on the ECG that are not definitive enough to make a clear diagnosis. In your case, with a heart rate of 93, PR interval of 99, QRS duration of 82, QT interval of 330, and QTc interval of 411, these values are within normal limits. However, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and interpretation of the ECG results. No specific medication is needed based on this information.

I've recently switched to Telma 40 from Inzit 4 mg just a few days ago, and while my blood pressure was normal initially, today it shot up to 135 over 105. Plus, I'm experiencing this tingling sensation in my hands and feet. I'm wondering, should I give it more time for my body to adjust to Telma? Will these side effects eventually go away, or would it be better to revert to Inzit, even though it gave me quite a few side effects too? What do you think I should do?
continue the same medications, all medications to be continued.. cough is the side effect nothing to worry..
