I'm 23 and had some tests done recently where my ECG and ECHO came back normal, but my QRS duration was 98ms. I'm kind of worried about whether this might have any implications for my health in the future. Can you explain if this is something I should be concerned about?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
QRS duration of 98ms is considered to be within normal limits for adults. It is unlikely to cause any issues in the future. No specific treatment is needed for this. Just continue to follow up with your healthcare provider for routine check-ups.

View allI'm a 56-year-old guy, weighing 83 kg, and after 10 months of taking rosuvastatin, my LDL cholesterol is now 68 mgdL. I'm also dealing with hypertension and diabetes, taking metformin 500 mg and Ramipril 2.5 mg, as well as aspirin and metoprolol succinate 25 mg. I haven't done an angiography yet. Given that I'm on all these medications, what should my next steps be to improve my health?
Based on your medical history and current medications, it is important to address your mildly positive TMT (Treadmill Test) result and the fact that you have not undergone angiography yet. To further improve your cardiovascular health and assess the status of your coronary arteries, it would be advisable to consult with a cardiologist for a more detailed evaluation. The cardiologist may recommend undergoing a coronary angiography to visualize any blockages in your coronary arteries and determine the best course of action. In the meantime, continue with your current medications: - Rosuvastatin for cholesterol management - Aspirin for antiplatelet effects - Metoprolol succinate for blood pressure control - Ramipril for blood pressure control - Metformin for diabetes management Ensure that you are following a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise, a balanced diet, and weight management. It is also essential to monitor your blood pressure, blood sugar levels, and cholesterol levels regularly. If you experience any chest pain, shortness of breath, or other concerning symptoms, seek immediate medical attention. Regular follow-ups with your healthcare provider are crucial for ongoing management and monitoring of your conditions.

I've been feeling some heaviness in my chest, not so much pain but more like there's something pressed against it. It's also affecting my sleep. My left shoulder and fingers feel a bit numb too, but it's more discomfort than pain. I used to smoke occasionally, like one or two cigarettes every few months, and I drink less than three days a month. All these chest discomforts have been around for about two years now. I saw a doctor back then and they said everything was fine, but it got worse with numbness and lightheadedness, and they said I had spondylosis. I've also had a shoulder injury since 2009, which I didn't really take care of. I'm trying to figure out if this is heart-related, gastric problems, or something due to my shoulder injury. It's really starting to affect me a lot. What could be causing these issues?

I'm really worried because I've been having chest pain for the last week. I took OMEE D on my own for only a day. Could you tell me the right dosage for OMEE D? I used to drink two lemon juices every day. Is that what's causing my chest pain?
omee d is 20 mg, reduce consumption of lemon juice
