What does significant STT changes in an ECG mean and is it safe for me to proceed with a hystero laparoscopy surgery
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Significant ST-T changes on an ECG, meaning abnormal ST-segment and T-wave tracings, can indicate various cardiac issues or be a normal variant. Whether it's safe to proceed with a hystero laparoscopy surgery with these changes depends on the specific cause and severity of the ST-T changes, as well as your overall health

View allI'm a bit worried because I've been having chest pain for the last two weeks. I just got my 2D echo report, and it says I have a mild prolapse of the anterior mitral leaflet. I'm not diabetic, I don't smoke, and I don't drink alcohol. Other than that, all the other results in the echo report seem to be normal. Should I be concerned about this? Could you please take a look at my reports and give me some advice?
Based on your description and the 2D echo report showing mild mitral valve regurgitation, I recommend starting treatment with a calcium channel blocker such as Amlodipine 5mg once daily to help with the chest pain and manage the mild regurgitation. Additionally, you can take Aspirin 75mg once daily to reduce the risk of any clot formation. It is important to follow up with your cardiologist for further evaluation and management.

I've been taking Tazloc Beta 25 for the last four years because of my high blood pressure and concentric LVH. Lately, I've been feeling dizzy all the time, dealing with weakness, having some erection issues, and frequently experiencing stomach upsets and indigestion. I'm really concerned and would love some guidance on how I can safely stop this medication without any side effects. Or if there are any alternative meds you might recommend?
It's essential to manage your blood pressure and left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) effectively, but experiencing side effects like dizziness, weakness, erectile dysfunction, and digestive issues is concerning. Tazloc Beta 25 combines telmisartan (an angiotensin II receptor blocker) and metoprolol (a beta-blocker). Stopping or changing this medication should only be done under the supervision of your healthcare provider. Here are steps to consider: 1. Consult your doctor: Schedule an appointment to discuss your side effects and the possibility of changing your medication. 2. Gradual adjustment: Your doctor may suggest a gradual reduction in dosage to minimize withdrawal symptoms and avoid a sudden increase in blood pressure. 3. Alternative medications: Your doctor may consider other classes of antihypertensive drugs, such as ACE inhibitors (e.g., lisinopril), calcium channel blockers (e.g., amlodipine), or diuretics (e.g., hydrochlorothiazide), which might have different side effect profiles. It's crucial that any changes to your medication regimen are made under medical supervision to ensure your blood pressure remains controlled and to monitor for any potential side effects.

I've been having palpitations for a year, so I went for a full body check, and they told me I have mitral valve prolapse which was supposedly causing the palpitations. I was advised to do cardio exercises, and I've been good with that. Recently though, the palpitations have become worse, especially when I lie flat, and it's been keeping me up at night. I'm also feeling anxious at bedtime, but I'm fine otherwise. It's really affecting my sleep and overall quality of life. Do you think I should see a doctor about this?
Yes, it is important to seek medical attention for your worsening symptoms. In your case, since you have a history of mitral valve prolapse and severe palpitations affecting your quality of life, it is recommended to consult a cardiologist for further evaluation and management. The doctor may prescribe medications such as Metoprolol (25-50mg) to help control your palpitations and anxiety symptoms. Additionally, they may suggest lifestyle modifications and relaxation techniques to help improve your sleep quality and overall well-being.
