I'm getting palpitations after just one drink of alcohol and my ECG results show something about a QRST contour abnormality and possible inferior myocardial damage. What should I do about this?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Based on your symptoms and ECG findings, it is important to avoid alcohol consumption. You should also consider taking medications such as Metoprolol (25-50mg) to help control your palpitations and protect your heart. Additionally, you may benefit from medications like Aspirin (75-150mg) to reduce the risk of further myocardial damage. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

View allI'm currently taking two medications, amlodipine besylate 2.5 mg and hydrochlorothiazide 25 mg, to manage my blood pressure. I was thinking about starting a dietary vitamin supplement and I'm worried if there could be any interactions with these meds. Can you give me some advice on whether I should be cautious about combining them?
Vitamin D supplements are generally safe to take with amlodipine and hydrochlorothiazide. However, it is always best to consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new supplement to ensure there are no potential interactions with your current medications.

I'm really confused about what's going on with my heart. My ECG came back positive, but my TMT, Echo, and CT Coronary Angiogram are all normal. I constantly feel this pain that seems to start in my left hand and move to my chest. What could this mean? Should I be worried about this combination of results and symptoms?
The pain radiating from your left hand to your chest could be indicative of musculoskeletal pain, such as costochondritis or muscle strain. I would recommend taking over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen or ibuprofen for pain relief. Additionally, applying a warm compress to the affected area and practicing relaxation techniques may also help alleviate your symptoms. If the pain persists or worsens, it is advisable to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I had a cardiac arrest back in 2007 and they found 25% blockage after an angiography at the hospital in Mumbai. Lately, for the last 15 days or so, I've been feeling weak pretty regularly. Had a Doppler and 2D echo test done in Jodhpur recently, and the doctor told me my heart is working at only 20%. I'm really concerned about this. What should I do next?
