I'm a bit confused about my recent test results. My echo test came back normal, but my ECG report is considered borderline. Could you help me understand what this means? Should I be concerned or take any specific actions?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
A borderline ECG report means that there may be some minor abnormalities or variations in the electrical activity of your heart, but they are not significant enough to definitively diagnose a specific condition. In this case, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and monitoring. Depending on your specific symptoms and medical history, your doctor may recommend further tests or medications. In the meantime, it is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise and a balanced diet.

View allI've been having sweating and breathlessness when going up the stairs, and there's some numbness in my palm along with a light pain in my chest. I talked to a cardiologist who's pretty experienced, and after checking out my echo report, they've suggested I get an angiography. I'm really unsure about whether I should go through with it. Could you give me some advice on this? I would really appreciate a quick response.
Based on your symptoms and the recommendation of your cardiologist, undergoing angiography would be important to assess the condition of your heart vessels. This procedure can provide detailed information about any blockages or narrowing in the arteries supplying your heart. It will help in determining the best course of treatment for your condition. Please follow your cardiologist's advice and proceed with the angiography as recommended.

I'm monitoring my blood pressure with an Omron machine, and it reads 100140, but my pulse is normal. I heard that blood pressure can stay high in winter. Should I think about consulting a doctor for this?
Seasonal changes can indeed affect blood pressure levels in some individuals. If your blood pressure consistently remains at 140100 mmHg, it is advisable to consult a doctor for further evaluation. You can consider taking antihypertensive medication like Losartan 50mg once daily to help manage your blood pressure. However, it is important to consult a healthcare professional for proper assessment and personalized treatment plan.
