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.

I've been feeling some chest discomfort lately and it's got me a bit worried. Back in 2013, I had an angiography after a positive TMT test, but everything was perfectly clear then. Now, my TMT test has come back positive again. I'm wondering what steps I should take next. Do you think I might need another angiography, or is there another approach I should consider?
If you are experiencing chest discomfort and your TMT test has come back positive again, it is advisable to consult your doctor for further evaluation. Another angiography may be recommended to assess the current status of your coronary arteries and determine the appropriate treatment plan. In the meantime, you can take medications like Aspirin 75mg once daily and Atorvastatin 20mg once daily to help manage your symptoms.

So lately I've been experiencing this weird needle-like pain around my chest. It only sticks around for a few seconds and then just vanishes. But what really worries me is this constant pain I'm feeling in my back between the shoulder blades. It's just not going away. What could this be? Would love to hear your thoughts on this!
"Based on your description of needle-like pain around the chest area that comes and goes, along with constant pain at the back between the shoulder blades, it sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of musculoskeletal pain or nerve irritation. To help alleviate the chest pain, you can take Acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg as needed for pain relief. For the constant back pain, you can try Ibuprofen (Advil) 400mg every 6-8 hours as needed for inflammation and pain. Additionally, applying a heating pad to the back area may also provide some relief. Make sure to rest and avoid activities that worsen the pain. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is advisable to seek further evaluation from a healthcare professional."
