I'm 24 and I spend a lot of time sitting because of my job. My pulse rate seems to bounce between 92 and 110. Is it normal for it to be that high at my age? I'm a bit worried if it's something I should be concerned about.

View allI've got some concerns about a recent ECG reading. It showed a mild STT change, and my heart rate was at 128. Is this something I should be worried about? Could the tachycardia be causing the STT change?
Mild ST-T changes in an ECG can be non-specific and may not always indicate a serious issue. Yes, tachycardia can cause ST-T changes due to the increased heart rate. A heart rate of 128 in an ECG may be considered tachycardia, which can be a concern depending on the underlying cause and symptoms. To address this, you can take a beta-blocker like Metoprolol 25mg to help control the heart rate and reduce the risk of further complications.

My dad is 54 and started having heart issues about 7 years ago. He's been on medication, but since last year, his ejection fraction dropped first to 38 and now it's at 42. What can we do to help improve his ejection fraction? I'm really worried.
It's important to closely monitor and manage your father's heart condition. To help increase his ejection fraction (EF), the following medications can be considered: - ACE inhibitors like Lisinopril 10mg once daily - Beta-blockers like Carvedilol 6.25mg twice daily - Aldosterone antagonists like Spironolactone 25mg once daily In addition to medication, lifestyle modifications such as regular exercise, a heart-healthy diet low in sodium and saturated fats, and stress management can also help improve EF. Regular follow-ups with his cardiologist are essential to adjust his treatment plan as needed.
