Can someone explain what a "Borderline ECG" means? I attached my mom's ECG report, and I'm really worried. Is this something we need to treat, or is everything okay?

View allI'm a bit concerned after getting my Holter test results back. It says I had 17 ventricular beats in tachycardia at 100 bpm and no bradycardia, with a sinus tachycardia peaking at 162 bpm just once. The doctors mentioned this might be normal for someone who drinks and smokes, and they advised me to quit both. The test was done because of an irregular pulse. Could you help me understand what all this means and how serious it is?
The holter test report indicates ventricular beats at 17%, beats in tachycardia (>=100 bpm) at 15%, and no bradycardia. Sinus tachycardia was noted at 162 bpm (maximum only once). It is advisable to quit alcohol and smoking, as advised by your doctors. The irregular pulse may be related to these habits. To help with the irregular pulse, you can take Metoprolol (brand name: Lopressor) 25mg twice daily. This medication can help regulate your heart rate and reduce the occurrence of irregular beats. Regular follow-up with your healthcare provider is recommended to monitor your progress.

I'm a bit confused about my recent TMT test results since it came back negative. Can you explain what that means for me?
A negative TMT (Treadmill Test) result indicates that there were no significant abnormalities detected during the test. It means that there is no evidence of blockages or reduced blood flow to the heart during physical activity. This is a good sign for your heart health.
