My mom had a CABG surgery back in 2013, and now her recent ECG shows something called left atrial abnormality. I'm a bit worried about what this means for her. How serious is this condition, and is it something that can be managed with medication?

I'm really stressed out because I've had a few ECGs recently, with the last two done today. They show sinus rhythm with marked left axis deviation, and it's consistent with LAFB, but at the same time, it says there's no significant abnormalities. Without any medical insurance, I'm super worried. Is this something serious? Can you explain what all of this means?
Sinus rhythm with left axis deviation and left anterior fascicular block (LAFB) on ECG can be a normal variant in some individuals. It may not always indicate a serious underlying heart condition. However, it is important to follow up with a healthcare provider for further evaluation and monitoring. In the meantime, you can consider taking medications like Metoprolol (25-50mg twice daily) to help manage any associated symptoms and reduce the risk of complications.

I'm a bit worried about what my latest test results mean. It mentions sinus bradycardia with frequent PVCs, but no AV block or ischemic period. Also, my lipid, thyroid, kidney, and liver profiles all came back normal. I've been taking Cordarone 100. Could you explain what all this means for my health, and if there's anything specific I should be doing or watching out for?
SINUS bradycardia with frequent PVC can be managed with medication. Since you are already taking Cordarone 100, which contains Amiodarone, it is likely being used to treat the frequent PVCs. In addition to Cordarone, a beta-blocker such as Metoprolol can also be prescribed to help regulate the heart rate and reduce the PVCs. The dosage of Metoprolol can vary, but a common starting dose is around 25-50mg twice daily. It is important to follow up with your doctor regularly to monitor the effectiveness of the treatment and adjust the dosage if needed.
