Question 1

I've been going through my routine check-up results, and my ECG report mentions sinus tachycardia with some changes in the ST-T section. I'm a 29-year-old guy, and aside from some allergy issues, I don't have any chronic health problems. Should I be worried about these results? Is it considered normal, or is it something I need to look deeper into?

Accepted Answer

Sinus tachycardia is a normal increase in heart rate that is often a response to exercise, stress, or illness. In your case, since you have mentioned that you have no known chronic diseases other than allergy problems, it is important to consider other factors that may be causing the sinus tachycardia. The changes in the ST-T segment could be indicative of various conditions, such as myocardial ischemia or electrolyte imbalances. I recommend consulting with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management. In the meantime, you can take a low dose of beta-blockers such as Metoprolol 25mg once daily to help control your heart rate. Additionally, monitoring your electrolyte levels and ensuring proper hydration may also be beneficial.

Question 2

I'm looking over my wife's yearly ECG report and I'm a bit worried about the results. It mentions "borderline" and lists some parameters like a rate of 89, sinus rhythm, and normal P AxisV rate. It also says something about short PR intervals and gives a bunch of numbers, like PR 105 and QRS 80. Im not sure what these mean. Do you think this calls for more tests or should I be concerned about anything specific?

Accepted Answer

Visit your Physician for evaluation and appropriate management

Question 3

I've been feeling strange sensations in my heart, especially when I get home after work, and at first I thought it was from drinking too much coffee. I've cut down on coffee but the feeling is still there. I do drink 2 coffees and 4 cups of tea every day. I also exercise regularly, like doing push-ups and lifting weights. Should I be worried about these symptoms? Could it be linked to my caffeine intake, or might there be something else going on?

Accepted Answer

stop taking excess tea and coffee
