I'm feeling a bit worried because I've had this pain in the middle of my chest, and when I got an ECG, it showed an abnormal Q wave in lead 3. It's the same result as a year ago when I had an ECG and then went through a TMT and an echo which both came back normal. Should I be getting another echo and TMT done now, or is it okay to hold off? Any guidance would be really helpful.

Based on your history of chest pain and abnormal q wave in lead 3 on ECG, it is important to continue monitoring your heart health. Since your previous TMT and echo were normal, it is reassuring. However, given the persistent abnormal q wave on ECG, it would be advisable to repeat the TMT and echo to ensure there have been no changes in your heart function. I recommend you to consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and to discuss the need for repeating the tests.

My wife has been dealing with some pain on the left side of her chest, and we're getting a bit worried. Do you have any idea what might be causing this and what kind of treatment she should consider?

Chest pain on the left side can be caused by various reasons such as heart problems, muscle strain, or even digestive issues. However, it is important to rule out any serious conditions related to the heart. I recommend taking your wife to a doctor for a proper evaluation and diagnosis. In the meantime, you can give her Acetaminophen 500mg for pain relief. But please consult with a doctor for further evaluation and treatment."

I'm looking at my report and it notes that I have a sinus rhythm with a heart rate of 81 and marked right axis deviation. I'm a bit anxious and just want to understand if this is normal or if there's something I should be concerned about. Could you help clarify what this means for my health?

report is not normal.. right axis deviation is of serious underlying pathology.AN ECHO is advised and cardiac opinion..probable diagnosis could be right ventricular hypertrophy, rt bundle branch block embolism, lung diseases,hyperkalemia and septal defects...

I've been dealing with anxiety and blood pressure issues and was initially on betacap tr40. My doctor switched me over to telma 20, but I started experiencing palpitations. So I saw another doctor who changed my medication to nebicard 2.5, but I'm still having those palpitations. Now, my psychiatrist is suggesting I take petril beta at night. Is it okay if I take nebicard 2.5 in the morning and petril beta at night? I'm a bit concerned and just want to make sure it's safe.

u have to take petril beta at night only.
