I recently got my routine health checkup results back, and the ECG report mentioned something about "ST-segment elevation lateral" and "borderline ECG." I'm not really sure what that means, and it's got me a bit worried. Could you help me understand if this is something serious or just a minor issue?

ST-segment elevation on an ECG can indicate a potential heart issue, such as myocardial infarction or heart attack. The lateral aspect refers to the left side of the heart. A borderline ECG means that the findings are not definitively abnormal but may warrant further investigation. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for a complete evaluation and appropriate management.

View allI'm wondering about my QTc interval, which was 454ms on the EKG. Is this considered normal? I also have sinus arrhythmia and had a panic attack before but during that time, both the EKG and echocardiogram came out normal. Should I be worried about this, and is there anything specific I should do or ask my doctor?
Your QTc interval of 454ms is slightly prolonged, which may be related to your sinus arrhythmia. Since you have a history of panic attacks, it's important to monitor your QTc interval regularly. In this case, it would be advisable to avoid medications that can further prolong the QTc interval. I recommend discussing this with your healthcare provider to determine the best course of action.

I'm really concerned about my ECG report that shows poor R wave progression in V3. I've been dealing with this pain in my left leg and a bit of chest pain. Could you help me understand what this means and what kind of treatment I might need?
Your ECG report showing poor R wave progression in V3 may indicate a possible heart issue. The left leg pain and slight chest pain could be related to poor blood circulation or heart problems. I recommend you to take Aspirin to prevent blood clotting and improve blood flow. Additionally, you can take Atorvastatin to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart problems. Please consult a cardiologist for further evaluation and management.

I recently went through a 2D echo because of some palpitations, and I've had an EKG as well. Plus, I did a stress test a while back. Do these results seem normal to you?
Based on the information provided, I cannot give a definitive answer without reviewing the actual results of your 2D echo, EKG, and stress test. It is important to consult with your healthcare provider to interpret the results accurately. If everything looks normal, no further action may be needed. However, if there are any abnormalities or concerns, your doctor may recommend specific medications.
