Question 1

I'm a bit worried about some of the results from my 24-hour Holter monitor and other tests. My heart rate got as high as 130 bpm at 11 am and dropped to 38 bpm at 4 am, with an average of 96 bpm. They noted baseline sinus arrhythmia but no trachiarrhythmia runs, AV block, or significant ST changes. My echocardiography shows an EF of 68 percent, which they said is normal. My fasting glucose came back at 106 mgdl. Everything else like LFT, KFT, and TSH seems to be within normal limits. Should I be concerned about these numbers? What do they really mean for my heart health?

Accepted Answer

Based on your results, I recommend you continue to monitor your heart rate and rhythm. Since there are no significant abnormalities detected, no specific medication is required at this time. However, it is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise and a balanced diet to support your heart health.

Question 2

I've been feeling a bit restless and having some pressure in my chest. The doctor ran some tests including an ECG and a 2D Echo. Most things came back normal, but it showed diastolic dysfunction grade 1. Should I be concerned about this, and what does it even mean for my health?

Accepted Answer

diastolic dysfunction grade 1 is normal

Question 3

I'm taking Metosartan 25mg once a day, and my blood pressure readings were around 11070 a few days ago. But now, when I checked, it was 14095. What could be causing this change?
