I'm a bit concerned about my recent test results and was hoping you could help clarify. I did a 2D echo test, but I'm not sure what counts as normal results for that. Also, I ran for 12 minutes on a stress test machine and I'm wondering what the normal results should look like for that. Can you explain what these tests mean and what I should be looking out for?

I'm trying to figure out if it's safe to include curd or milk in the diet for someone with high triglycerides and high LDL cholesterol. Is there any benefit or should they be avoided?

Azithromycin (Azipro 500) is an antibiotic commonly used to treat bacterial infections, including throat infections. The usual dosage for adults with a sore throat is 500 mg once daily for 3 days. It is important to complete the full course as prescribed by the pharmacist. In addition to Azithromycin, you can also try over-the-counter remedies such as throat lozenges, warm salt water gargles, and staying hydrated to help alleviate your symptoms. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation.

I'm trying to understand my recent ECG results that mentioned a sinus rhythm with right axis deviation. I've been having occasional chest thumping, especially after drinking things with caffeine, trouble sleeping, and sometimes shallow breathing. What could this mean for my health, and should I be worried?

Sinus rhythm right axis deviation on an ECG indicates that the electrical impulses in your heart are following a normal pattern, but the direction of the electrical activity is slightly shifted to the right side of the heart. This can be a normal variation for some individuals, but it can also be associated with certain heart conditions. Based on your symptoms of chest thumping after consuming caffeine, difficulty sleeping, and shallow breathing, it is important to consider the possibility of underlying heart issues such as arrhythmias or palpitations. I recommend consulting with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, you can try to reduce your caffeine intake and practice relaxation techniques to help with your symptoms.

I've noticed my SPO2 levels usually range from 96 to 98, but sometimes they drop to 90 before going back up to 96. I'm not sure which reading I should pay attention to. Also, my BPM is consistently over 100. Meanwhile, my mom, who's 51, has a normal BPM between 72 and 80. I'm worried if these symptoms could be related to any heart or lung issues, especially since I haven't had COVID. Could you give me some advice on this?
