I'm having this pain in my left leg that's been bothering me for about 15 days now. I'm 84 and have a history of heart issues, so I'm regularly on medications like Ecospirin, Amlokind for my blood pressure, and some others like Nitrolong and Losar, though I've recently stopped taking Renozex. The pain hits me when I walk. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

I've recently had an ECG done, and it mentioned something called sinus arrhythmia. Just wondering, is this a big deal? Should I be making an appointment with a cardiologist to get it checked out further?

ECG report showing sinus arrhythmia is usually not a cause for concern, especially if you are not experiencing any symptoms. Sinus arrhythmia is a normal variation in heart rate that occurs with breathing. However, if you have any underlying heart conditions or if you are experiencing symptoms such as dizziness, chest pain, or shortness of breath, it is advisable to consult a Cardiologist for further evaluation and management. No specific medication is required for sinus arrhythmia.
