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 really confused because my Echo and ECG tests came back normal, but I'm still experiencing these palpitations. I'm a GERD patient, and whenever these palpitations hit, I get really nervous. What could be causing this, and is there anything I should be doing or looking out for?
Palpitations despite normal Echo and ECG in a GERD patient could be due to acid reflux irritating the vagus nerve, leading to palpitations. In such cases, managing GERD effectively can help reduce palpitations. You can try taking Omeprazole 20mg once daily before breakfast for GERD.

I've been experiencing this weird irregular and thumping heartbeat but there's no chest pain. It's just this uncomfortable feeling in my chest, especially when I drink water or eat. It makes it hard to take a deep breath. I went to the doctor and they suggested an ECG, which came out normal. It went away for a couple of days but now it's back again. What could be causing this?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of palpitations and difficulty breathing. These symptoms can be caused by various factors such as anxiety, dehydration, caffeine intake, or underlying heart conditions like arrhythmias. Since your ECG results were normal, it is important to rule out other possible causes. I recommend you to try to stay hydrated, avoid excessive caffeine intake, and manage stress levels. Additionally, you can take a beta-blocker like Metoprolol 25mg once daily to help regulate your heartbeat and reduce palpitations. If symptoms persist or worsen, further evaluation by a cardiologist may be necessary.

I'm really worried about what to do if someone has a heart attack before we can get them to the hospital. Is there a specific tablet that's recommended to take beforehand to help prevent any more damage to the heart?
