Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
With time, raised blood sugar levels can damage the blood vessels and nerves that control the heart. Additionally, people with diabetes are also more likely to have other conditions that raise the risk for heart disease such as high blood pressure and deranged cholesterol or triglyceride levels.

View allI'm trying to understand something about ECG readings. In a normal person, when you look at the R wave in the V3 and V4 chest leads, is it due to major ventricular depolarization or septal depolarization? I could really use some help figuring this out.

I'm trying to understand my dad's recent health reports, and I'm a bit worried. He's been dealing with a gastro esophageal ulcer, and he just had an ECO done. The report says he has IAS and IVS intact. Can you explain what this means? I'm really concerned about his condition and would love some clarity on this.
IAS and IVS intact in echo means that those part of the heart are not damaged

I'm 24 and recently found out I have sinus tachycardia and Grade 1 MVP. My Holter monitor showed a few ectopics, and I've been having anxiety that pushes my heart rate to around 130 bpm when I go out. My doctor suggested taking INDERAL 10 twice a day, but I'm worried. I've heard that once you start on beta blockers, you can't stop them. Is that true? Should I really begin this medication?
Inderal (propranolol) can be an effective treatment for managing your heart rate and anxiety symptoms. However, it is essential to work closely with your doctor to ensure the medication is appropriately adjusted for your need
