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 working from home and I've had some episodes of heart palpitations like 4 or 5 times, along with mild giddiness, but I was able to walk around during those times. That's really all I felt back then. Just to be safe, I went through all the heart tests twiceECG, echo, TMT, chest X-ray, and blood testsand they all came back normal. But my blood pressure and LDL are a bit high, around 140. I've never experienced this before working from home, and nothing's happened for the last 67 months. However, I've been having these symptoms lately: a pinpoint mild pain in my left chest that only lasts a few seconds, sometimes a fluttering or pounding feeling in my left chest or other body parts, and occasionally I feel dizzy, lightheaded, or like I'm floating. So, I'm wondering if this is a heart-related issue or something else entirely, and whatever it is, what can I do to make these symptoms stop? I'm really worried that something bad might happen to me.
Based on your description, it is good that you have already undergone several heart tests which came back normal. The symptoms you are experiencing could be related to anxiety or stress. However, it is important to continue monitoring your blood pressure and LDL levels and make necessary lifestyle changes to improve them. To address the occasional mild chest pain and flutteringpounding sensation in your left chest, you can try taking a low dose of a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol (25mg) once daily to help with palpitations and chest discomfort. Additionally, for the giddiness and lightheadedness, you can take a daily dose of Aspirin (75mg) to improve blood flow. It is also advisable to practice stress-reducing techniques such as deep breathing exercises, yoga, or meditation to help manage your symptoms. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it would be beneficial to consult with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management.

My father had angioplasty last December but still has a mild blockage. The doctor said they'll deal with it later and he's on meds now but has constant coughing. Will the meds clear the blockage or will he need another surgery? If surgery is needed how soon should it be done? He's reluctant to go back to the hospital and I'm worried about his condition
do echo first.
