Question 1

I'm a bit concerned because my ECG results show an inversion in lead 3 and AVF. I don't really have any pain, but I do have high blood pressure. My exercise treadmill test (ETT) came back negative, and my echocardiogram is normal too. So, what's causing these inverted T waves, and should I be worried about it?

Accepted Answer

The inversion of T waves in lead 3 and aVF on your ECG could be due to various reasons, including but not limited to hypertension. Since your exercise tolerance test (ETT) is negative and your echocardiogram is normal, it is less likely to be related to coronary artery disease. However, it is important to monitor your blood pressure closely and make sure it is well controlled. In this case, medications like Amlodipine 5mg once daily can be prescribed to help manage your high blood pressure and potentially improve the T wave inversion. Regular follow-ups with your healthcare provider are essential to monitor your condition.

Question 3

I'm experiencing constant twitching in my lower middle chest and the extreme upper left part of my chest muscles, but there's no pain. Sometimes it even happens in my left arm. Should I be worried about this? What might be causing these muscle twitches?

Accepted Answer

Muscle twitching in the chest and left arm without pain is usually not a cause for concern. It could be due to muscle fatigue, stress, caffeine intake, or even dehydration. However, if the twitching persists or is accompanied by other symptoms such as chest pain, shortness of breath, or dizziness, it is important to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can try to alleviate the twitching by staying hydrated, reducing stress levels, and getting an adequate amount of rest.

Question 5

My creatinine level is at 1.3, which I understand is borderline. I'm considering going for coronary angiography but I'm a bit worried. Is it safe to proceed, and if so, what precautions should I be aware of?

Accepted Answer

If creatinine is at the borderline level of 1.3, it is important to assess the overall kidney function before proceeding with coronary angiography. Precautions that should be taken include ensuring adequate hydration before and after the procedure, monitoring kidney function closely, and considering the use of contrast media with lower nephrotoxicity. Additionally, medications such as N-acetylcysteine and sodium bicarbonate may be considered to help protect the kidneys during the procedure.

Question 6

My daughter is 7 and has started complaining about chest pain recently. She had a brain hemorrhage right after birth but recovered well from that. She never mentioned any pain like this before. Could you please give me some advice on what might be ca...

Accepted Answer

Chest pain in children can have various causes, including respiratory infections, muscle strain, or even anxiety. However, given your daughter's history of a brain hemorrhage, it is important to rule out any serious underlying conditions. I recommend you take her to a pediatrician for a thorough evaluation. In the meantime, you can give her Children's Tylenol (acetaminophen) at a dose appropriate for her age and weight to help with any discomfort.
