I'm feeling a bit worried because there's this pain in my left side, near my chest. It almost feels like there's something sitting there. Should I be concerned about this?

I'm trying to make sense of my recent test results and I'm a bit worried. It mentioned "borderline t abnormalities" and "inferior leads," with something about "tSt elevation" possibly being part of a normal repolarization pattern. I'm diabetic, and these terms have me a little on edge. Could you shed some light on what all this means and if it's something I should be concerned about?

diagnosis is inferior wall myocardial infarction, immediate cardiologist intervention is required.

She got an ECG done, and while the doctor said everything was normal and it's due to acidity, I'm still a bit concerned because the ECG mentioned something about right axis deviation.

I'm really confused about this whole ventricular tachycardia situation. At first, they thought I needed an ICD implant, but after more tests like echo, angiography, and X-ray at SGPGI Lucknow, they said my heart looks fine and don't recommend the implant anymore. I'm worried because they still haven't figured out what's causing my irregular heartbeat. What could be going on, and what should I do next?

The cause of ventricular tachycardia can be multifactorial, and sometimes it may not be easily identified. Some possible causes include coronary artery disease, cardiomyopathy, electrolyte imbalances, structural heart defects, or certain medications. In some cases, it may be idiopathic, meaning no specific cause can be found. To further investigate the cause of your irregular heartbeat, additional tests may be needed such as a Holter monitor to record your heart's electrical activity over a period of time, an electrophysiology study to evaluate the heart's electrical system, or genetic testing if there is a suspicion of an inherited condition. In terms of treatment, if the cause of the ventricular tachycardia is not identified, management may involve medications such as beta-blockers or antiarrhythmic drugs to help control the heart rhythm. Lifestyle modifications such as avoiding triggers like caffeine or alcohol, managing stress, and regular exercise may also be beneficial. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider regularly to monitor your condition and adjust treatment as needed based on your symptoms and test results.
