I just got my ECG results back from a health check-up, and it's showing a Left Axis Deviation. I've never had any BP problems, and my blood pressure during the exam was 13080. What could be causing the Left Axis Deviation? Should I be worried about it?

View allI'm wondering if it's okay to stop taking ecospirin 75 after recovering from COVID. Is there a recommended time to keep taking it if I only had mild symptoms? And what happens if I stop using it after a month? Could there be any side effects from stopping it so soon?
Ecospirin 75 is a brand name for aspirin. Aspirin is often prescribed post-Covid recovery to prevent blood clots. The duration for taking aspirin post-Covid recovery varies depending on individual risk factors and the severity of the illness. It is important to follow your healthcare provider's recommendations regarding the duration of aspirin therapy. Stopping aspirin abruptly after 1 month of Covid recovery may increase the risk of blood clots, especially if you were prescribed aspirin for this purpose. It is important to consult with your healthcare provider before discontinuing any medication, including aspirin, to avoid any potential side effects or complications.

I've been noticing that when I'm lying down, I can actually feel my heartbeat. Is this what's known as palpitation? It doesn't feel like that scary, pounding sensation, just a slight awareness of my heartbeat. Should I be concerned?
Yes, feeling your heart beat when lying down can be considered palpitations. It is important to monitor your symptoms and consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can try taking propranolol 10mg once daily to help with palpitations.

I'm a bit worried after my full body health check-up. The ECG and stress ECG turned out normal, but the 2D Echo showed I have grade 1 diastolic dysfunction. And there were some issues in my chest X-ray too. I also have diabetes and I'm on medication for that. Plus, I've got a hernia operation coming up next week. Is this something I should be seriously concerned about? Should I go see a cardiologist and a pulmonologist?
first consult cardiologist.
