I'm feeling really worried because I've been dealing with fatigue for about 20 days now, and it just doesn't seem to go away. I've also had some headaches on and off. Could these be signs of a heart attack?

Fatigue and headache are not specific symptoms of a heart attack. However, it is important to pay attention to any unusual symptoms you may be experiencing. Fatigue and headache can be caused by various factors such as stress, lack of sleep, dehydration, or underlying medical conditions. It is recommended to consult a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation and diagnosis.

View allI'm trying to understand why my ejection fraction is higher than normal. It's at 82, whereas previously it was 70 according to another report. Should I be worried about this change? What could cause such an increase in ejection fraction?
An ejection fraction of 82% is considered higher than normal and may indicate a condition such as hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. It is important to follow up with your cardiologist for further evaluation and management. In some cases, medications like Metoprolol (Toprol XL) may be prescribed to help lower the heart rate and improve heart function. The dosage will depend on your specific condition and needs.

My uncle has been diagnosed with incomplete RBBB and I'm just wondering how serious that is and what we should do about it. He's also been taking Tolol XL 25 mg for the past 10 years. Should he be worried or consider any specific treatments?
Incomplete right bundle branch block (RBBB) is a condition where the electrical impulses in the heart are delayed or blocked in the right bundle branch. It is important to monitor this condition regularly as it can sometimes progress to a complete block. In most cases, Incomplete RBBB does not cause symptoms and does not require specific treatment. However, it is important for your uncle to have regular follow-ups with a cardiologist to monitor his heart health. Regarding the medication Tolol XL 25mg that your uncle has been taking for 10 years, it is a brand name for Metoprolol XL. This medication is a beta-blocker that is commonly used to treat high blood pressure, chest pain, and heart failure. The dosage of 25mg is a common starting dose for Metoprolol XL. It is important for your uncle to continue taking this medication as prescribed by his doctor. Regular follow-ups with a cardiologist, monitoring of the Incomplete RBBB, and continued use of Metoprolol XL as prescribed are important steps in managing your uncle's heart health.
