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 trying to make sense of an angiography report, and it's got me a bit worried. It mentions a "LAD type 3 vessel proximal LAD 90 and mid LAD 90 stenosis" and "distal LAD minor plaques." Theres also talk of an "Intermediate 70 stenosis" and "LCX codominant system ostial 80 stenosis." Apparently, the LMCA is normal except for minor plaque and diagonals have non-obstructive plaque, while the marginals and PDAPLV are normal. The report concludes with "Final Diagnosis CAD Effort angina two vessel disease normal LV function. What does this all mean, and what should be the next steps? Is it something super serious?

I'm a bit concerned because my heart rate is around 60 to 55 when I'm lying down. Is this something I should worry about? I've been having mild pain on both sides of my chest, which feels like muscle pain, and it comes and goes. I had an ECG in May, and it was normal, and I just had a Chest CT scan, which also came back normal. Do you have any advice on what might be causing this, or should I look into it further?
It's good that your ECG and Chest CT scan results are normal. Your heart rate of 55-60 while lying down is within the normal range for adults. The mild chest pain you are experiencing could be musculoskeletal in nature. You can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers like Acetaminophen 500mg as needed for the chest pain. Additionally, you can apply a topical pain relief gel like Volini gel on the affected areas. Make sure to practice good posture and avoid activities that worsen the pain. If the pain persists or worsens, it's advisable to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation.
