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?

I'm a bit worried since my recent ECHO showed this mild concentric LVH. Can you explain what this actually means and what precautions I should be taking? Ive got the ECHO report and the cardiologist's prescription with me. I'd really appreciate it if you could give me a second opinion.

Mild concentric Left Ventricular Hypertrophy (LVH) on your ECHO report indicates that the muscle wall of your heart's left ventricle has thickened, which can increase the risk of heart disease and cardiac arrhythmias; to take precautions, focus on lifestyle modifications, such as regular exercise, stress reduction, and a balanced diet, while also managing underlying conditions like hypertension and diabetes; for a second opinion, consult another cardiologist, and provide them with your ECHO report and prescription to discuss the best course of action and potential further testing, such as a stress test or cardiac MRI.

I'm really worried about my dad. He recently visited a doctor who suggested some blood tests along with ECG and TMT. Thankfully, all his blood parameters, including cholesterol, TG, and lipid levels, are within the normal range. But during the TMT, he experienced very mild chest pain, and the doctor marked it as TMT positive for RMI. I'm really concerned about what this means. Should we be considering angiography and maybe even angioplasty for him?

I'm a bit worried because for the past two days, I've been having some breathing discomfort, but it's not constant. It mostly happens after I've eaten in the afternoon and at night. I'm also experiencing some pain in my shoulder. I just started Zumba exercises, and it seems like this all started the day after. Do you think there's a connection? What's going on with my breathing and shoulder?
