I had a cardiac arrest back in 2007 and they found 25% blockage after an angiography at the hospital in Mumbai. Lately, for the last 15 days or so, I've been feeling weak pretty regularly. Had a Doppler and 2D echo test done in Jodhpur recently, and the doctor told me my heart is working at only 20%. I'm really concerned about this. What should I do next?

I just got my ECG report back, and it says "sinus rhythm with marked sinus arrhythmia." Should I be concerned about this? Do I need to see a specialist or get a further consultation? How serious could this be?

Sinus rhythm with marked sinus arrhythmia is a common finding in ECG reports and is usually not a cause for concern. It typically does not require any specific treatment unless it is causing symptoms such as dizziness or fainting. In most cases, it does not indicate a serious underlying heart condition. If you are not experiencing any symptoms, no further consultation is necessary.

I need some advice on my mom's ECG report. It says she's got a sinus rhythm and something called enlarged PtfV1. What does that mean? Should we be concerned about it?

The ECG report showing sinus rhythm and a large P wave in lead V1 indicates a possible right atrial enlargement. This could be due to various reasons such as pulmonary hypertension, tricuspid valve disease, or chronic lung disease. It is important to correlate this finding with your mother's clinical symptoms and history. There is no need to worry, but it would be advisable to consult a cardiologist for a detailed evaluation and further management. In the meantime, your mother may benefit from medications like Furosemide to reduce fluid retention and workload on the heart, as well as medications like Digoxin to help regulate the heart rate.
