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.
