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've been experiencing this heavy feeling in my chest, and sometimes there's a little pain too. It's been going on for about a month now, maybe 34 days. I haven't really had any medical issues before this, so I'm not sure what's going on. Could this be something serious? Should I get it checked out?

I've been experiencing chest pain sometimes when I take deep breaths, and I also find myself getting out of breath when I'm walking or using the stairs. My cholesterol numbers came back with a total of 274, HDL at 49, and triglycerides at 193. I'm currently taking Storvas 20 and have been on it for about 20 days now. Can you advise on what steps I should take or if there's anything else I should be concerned about?
Based on your symptoms and cholesterol levels, it is important to continue taking Storvas 20 to help lower your cholesterol levels. In addition, you may benefit from adding an antiplatelet medication like Aspirin 75mg to reduce the risk of heart attack or stroke. It is also important to make lifestyle changes such as following a heart-healthy diet, exercising regularly, and quitting smoking if you smoke. If your symptoms persist or worsen, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm a software engineer and I'm generally in good health. My BMI is normal and my blood pressure is fine too. But I've noticed that my resting heart rate is always over 90 and it's kind of unsettling. I've recently started working out to stay fit and while I don't feel any discomfort, that number still worries me. Should I be concerned about it? What could be causing this and is there a way to bring it down to a normal range?
it is normal
