I'm looking at my ECG results and noticed a short PR interval of 104ms and a heart rate of 77 BPM. Is this something I should be worried about? What kind of care or steps should I take to address this?

I'm really worried about my health. Every year I get a check-up done, and back in November 2019 at Narayana Hrudyalaya Bangalore, everything was fine my ECG, Echo, and cholesterol were all normal. But I recently did another cholesterol test, and the results are making me anxious: Total cholesterol is 180, Triglycerides 130, HDL 15, Direct LDL 137, and Non-HDL 165. Lately, I've been feeling this discomfort in my arms and sometimes around my neck, which only lasts a few seconds, but it's got me really concerned about a possible heart attack. My blood pressure is at 12880, and I've been on BP meds for four years now. Back in 2017, both the Holter and Ambulatory tests were normal too, just like the Echo and ECG from November 2019. I'm questioning if there's something serious happening. Should I get another Echo? Is an angiogram necessary? I'm pretty scared and would appreciate any advice.

Given your normal results from previous ECG, Echo, and Holter tests, as well as your relatively controlled blood pressure and current cholesterol levels, it's reassuring to some extent. However, the discomfort in your arms and neck, although lasting only a few seconds, deserves attention, especially given your fear of a heart attack. It would be wise to discuss these new symptoms with your cardiologist. They may recommend repeating some tests, such as an ECG or an Echo, to ensure no changes have occurred since your last evaluation. Depending on their assessment, they may also consider a stress test or a coronary angiogram to rule out any significant coronary artery disease. It's important to address these concerns promptly to alleviate your fears and ensure your heart health is appropriately managed.

I've been on storvas 20 for the past couple of months, and I'm wondering if I should keep taking it or not. The reports came back, and I'm really not sure how to interpret them. Could you please help me out with this?

Storvas 20 is a brand name for atorvastatin, which is commonly used to lower cholesterol levels. It is important to continue taking it as prescribed by your doctor, especially if it has been effective in managing your cholesterol levels. However, it is always recommended to follow up with your doctor for regular check-ups and to review your reports to ensure the medication is still appropriate for you.
