I'm a bit worried after getting some tests done. I had an ECG yesterday due to some mild chest pain, and it showed abnormal inferolateral ischemia. Then I went through a TMT, and it came out borderline positive for inducible myocardial ischemia at 10.1 Mts. Can you help me understand what all of this means? Is it something I need to be really concerned about?

Based on the findings of infrolateral ischemia on the ECG and borderline positive result on the TMT for myocardial ischemia, I recommend starting treatment with Aspirin 75mg once daily to prevent blood clot formation and reduce the risk of heart attack. Additionally, you can take Atorvastatin 20mg once daily to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of further heart issues. It is important to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management.

View allI'm a bit concerned because my heart rate is around 60 to 55 when I'm lying down. Is this something I should worry about? I've been having mild pain on both sides of my chest, which feels like muscle pain, and it comes and goes. I had an ECG in May, and it was normal, and I just had a Chest CT scan, which also came back normal. Do you have any advice on what might be causing this, or should I look into it further?
It's good that your ECG and Chest CT scan results are normal. Your heart rate of 55-60 while lying down is within the normal range for adults. The mild chest pain you are experiencing could be musculoskeletal in nature. You can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers like Acetaminophen 500mg as needed for the chest pain. Additionally, you can apply a topical pain relief gel like Volini gel on the affected areas. Make sure to practice good posture and avoid activities that worsen the pain. If the pain persists or worsens, it's advisable to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation.

I'm really anxious about my recent ECG results. They showed irregular heartbeats and sometimes sinus tachycardia. My doctor mentioned taking Nebi 2.5, but I'm unsure if it's right for me because I don't have blood pressure issues or any other major health problems. Also, I tend to overthink and have anxiety. Is this medication really going to help with my situation? I'm feeling quite torn about starting it. What do you suggest?
Nebivolol (Nebi) 2.5 mg is a beta-blocker often prescribed to manage irregular heartbeats and conditions like sinus tachycardia, and it can also help with anxiety symptoms by slowing the heart rate and reducing palpitations. Since you have anxiety and overthinking issues, Nebivolol might help alleviate these symptoms by controlling your heart rate. However, it's important to follow your doctor's advice and give the medication a try while monitoring your response to it. If you have concerns or experience side effects, discuss them with your healthcare provider. Additionally, consider incorporating anxiety management techniques such as mindfulness, therapy, or relaxation exercises.
