Question 1

I'm really concerned after getting a report that mentions having a borderline with a short PR interval. Is this something that I should be worried about? What steps should I take next?

Accepted Answer

A borderline short PR interval may indicate a potential conduction abnormality in the heart. It is important to further evaluate this finding. The next steps would typically involve a thorough medical history, physical examination, and additional tests such as an ECG, echocardiogram, and possibly a Holter monitor to monitor heart rhythm over a period of time. In terms of medication, if necessary, a doctor may prescribe medications such as Beta-blockers like Metoprolol to help regulate the heart rate and rhythm. However, the specific treatment plan would depend on the underlying cause of the short PR interval and should be determined by a healthcare professional after a comprehensive evaluation.

Question 2

My blood pressure has been low for the past 15 days never happened before. This is the first time. I also took some meds for wisdom tooth surgery recently. What should I do about it?

Accepted Answer

If your blood pressure has consistently been low for the past 15 days, especially after a recent wisdom tooth surgery, it's important to consult with your doctor or dentist. While a single instance of low blood pressure might be manageable with lifestyle adjustments, persistent low blood pressure could indicate an underlying issue. The medications you took for the wisdom tooth surgery could also be a contributing factor

Question 3

I'm experiencing heart palpitations, a fluttering feeling in my chest, and shortness of breath. I've already had an ECG, TMT, and echo scan, and all of the results came back normal. Why might this be happening?

Accepted Answer

Heart palpitations, fluttering, and shortness of breath can be caused by various factors, even if your ECG, TMT, and echo scan results are normal. One possible cause could be anxiety or stress. However, other causes such as thyroid disorders, electrolyte imbalances, or certain medications can also lead to these symptoms. In your case, since your reports are normal, I recommend trying a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol (25-50mg) to help with the palpitations and fluttering. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques and stress management may also be beneficial in reducing these symptoms.

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?
