I'm looking at my echocardiography report and I'm a bit worried. It says things like IVSTD 03 mm, LVPWD 07 mm, LVIDd 70 mm, FS 13, LVIDs 61 mm, and EF 28. I'm not sure what all of that means, but I'm concerned about whether these measurements are okay. Am I actually fit? Can you help me understand this?

Based on your echocardiography report, it indicates that you have a reduced ejection fraction (EF) of 28%, which is below the normal range (55-70%). This may indicate a decrease in the pumping function of your heart. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management. In terms of medication, you may be prescribed medications such as Carvedilol

View allI've been having these weird symptoms lately, and I'm not sure what's going on. Whenever I masturbate, I start to feel really breathless, my heart races, my chest hurts, and I get this lightheaded feeling. It's strange because I never used to have these issues. Even when I'm just walking around, I feel out of breath and dizzy. I got an ECG, TMT, and echo done and they all came back normal. My lipid profile shows my total cholesterol is 193 with HDL at 42 and LDL at 151. My vitamin B12 was around 212, and vitamin D was 51. I even did a lung test and that came back normal too. Another odd thing is that I feel uncomfortable in my chest when listening to music with a lot of bass vibrations. What could be causing all this?

I'm currently 30 weeks pregnant and I've been told there's an increased RS ratio in V1, which might suggest an early transition or a posterior infarct. I'm taking labetalol 100 and Ecosprin 75. I'm really worried about what this means for me and the baby. Could you help me understand this better?

I'm really worried because I've been having this chest pain for the last 40 days. It used to be constant, but now it just comes and goes. I feel this heaviness in my left chest, and then it moves to the right. Sometimes there's this sharp pinch that lasts like two seconds, and I'm also burping a lot when I sit down. I've already done an ECG, which I've attached. Can you give me any advice or suggest any medication?
Based on your symptoms and ECG findings, it is important to rule out any cardiac issues. However, considering the description of your pain and symptoms, it could also be related to acid reflux or gastritis. I recommend starting with an antacid medication like **Omeprazole** 20mg once daily before breakfast for at least 2 weeks. Additionally, you can take **Simethicone** for relief from burping. It is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.
