My uncle has been diagnosed with incomplete RBBB and I'm just wondering how serious that is and what we should do about it. He's also been taking Tolol XL 25 mg for the past 10 years. Should he be worried or consider any specific treatments?

Incomplete right bundle branch block (RBBB) is a condition where the electrical impulses in the heart are delayed or blocked in the right bundle branch. It is important to monitor this condition regularly as it can sometimes progress to a complete block. In most cases, Incomplete RBBB does not cause symptoms and does not require specific treatment. However, it is important for your uncle to have regular follow-ups with a cardiologist to monitor his heart health. Regarding the medication Tolol XL 25mg that your uncle has been taking for 10 years, it is a brand name for Metoprolol XL. This medication is a beta-blocker that is commonly used to treat high blood pressure, chest pain, and heart failure. The dosage of 25mg is a common starting dose for Metoprolol XL. It is important for your uncle to continue taking this medication as prescribed by his doctor. Regular follow-ups with a cardiologist, monitoring of the Incomplete RBBB, and continued use of Metoprolol XL as prescribed are important steps in managing your uncle's heart health.

I'm really confused. My ECG, TMT, and 2D Echo all came back negative, but I'm still experiencing chest pain and pain in my left upper arm. What should I do next?
This could be due to irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). You can try taking over-the-counter medication like Imodium (Loperamide) 2mg after meals to help reduce the frequency of bowel movements. Additionally, make sure to drink plenty of water and eat a high-fiber diet to regulate your bowel movements.
