I'm a bit worried after seeing my chest x-ray results. It mentions mild bilateral perihilar and basal congestion along with borderline cardiomegaly. Can you explain what this means, and how I might be able to treat it or manage the symptoms?

View allI'm looking over my recent ECG report and I'm a bit worried about understanding it. It shows various measurements like QRS 84ms, QTQTcB 360439 ms, PR 148ms, and more stuff like that. I'm not sure if anything seems off, especially with these values like P 92ms and RRPP 672650 ms, and how they all add up. Also, theres something about Sokolow 1.3mVNK from 13 May. Could you explain what these all mean and if I should be concerned about anything unusual here?

I've been having some pretty intense heart palpitations, sometimes around 130 bpm, which really worried me. Our family doctor suggested I get admitted just to keep an eye on it. I ended up having four ECGs and a 2D echo, and thankfully, everything came back normal. Despite that, I still sometimes feel those palpitations. Is this something I should be really worried about? Also, I've been feeling some pain near my left shoulder blade and the left side of my chest just below the shoulder. Could these be connected?

I'm worried about my health since my hs-CRP is 3.60 and CRP is 4.20. Is this something I should be really concerned about and get treated right away? I had an angiogram back in December 2020, and everything came out normal then. Also, I've been dealing with high blood pressure and diabetes. Can you help me understand what these numbers mean?
Given your history of high blood pressure, diabetes, and previous angiogram, it is important to manage your CRP levels to reduce the risk of further complications. I recommend starting a statin medication like Atorvastatin 20mg daily to help lower your CRP levels and reduce inflammation in the arteries. Additionally, you should continue to manage your high blood pressure with medications like Amlodipine 5mg daily and control your diabetes with medications like Metformin 1000mg twice daily. Regular exercise, a healthy diet, and weight management are also important in managing inflammation and reducing cardiovascular risk.
