I'm really concerned about my father's health after getting his ECG results. He's 72 and sometimes has high blood pressure. He's been taking ecospirin av 75 at night, and the report mentions sinus bradycardia, right bundle branch block, and T wave abnormality suggesting lateral ischemia. It's labeled as an abnormal ECG, and I'm honestly worried. Should we consider surgery, or is it safe for him to continue with the ecospirin av 75? Could you please guide us on the next steps?

"Based on the ECG report showing Sinus bradycardia, Right bundle branch block, and T wave abnormality with possible lateral ischemia, it is important to consult a Cardiologist for further evaluation and management. Your father may need additional tests such as a stress test or coronary angiography to assess the extent of any blockages in the heart vessels. In terms of medication, Ecospirin AV 75 is a combination of Aspirin and Atorvastatin, which is commonly used for heart conditions. It is important to continue this medication as prescribed by the doctor unless advised otherwise. However, the dosage and frequency may need to be adjusted based on the cardiologist's recommendations. At this point, there is no indication for immediate surgery based on the information provided. The next steps will depend on the cardiologist's assessment of your father's overall cardiac health and the extent of any potential ischemia. Please schedule an appointment with a Cardiologist at the earliest to discuss the ECG findings and determine the appropriate course of action."

View allI've been experiencing some chest pressure and tightness for just a couple of seconds. I managed to take an ECG from a single lead and I'm just wondering if it looks normal to you. I had a treadmill test, echo, and ECG all last week and everything seemed fine. Should I be considering any other tests?
based on your description, it is important to consider the context of your symptoms and previous tests. Since you have a history of chest pressure and have already undergone a TMT, Echo, and ECG which were normal, it is reassuring. However, a single-lead ECG may not provide a comprehensive assessment. It would be advisable to consult with a cardiologist for a thorough evaluation. In the meantime, you can take Tab. Aspirin 75mg once daily to prevent any potential cardiac issues.

I've been having this discomfort in my left arm and shoulder that doesn't get worse when I exercise, and resting doesn't seem to help either. Plus, I've been experiencing sudden breathing difficulties along with sweating every couple of evenings, and it's really exhausting, but strangely, no chest pain like a heart attack. These symptoms were there about a year ago but felt less frequent. Now, it's been more than a month and it's happening more often. A year back, my ECG, ECHO, TMT, and Holter tests came back normal, along with normal TSH, lipid profile, vitamin D levels, etc. The doctor thinks it might be panic attacks, but why do I still have this persistent arm pain? If it was a heart issue, shouldn't there have been complications by now? What do you think I should do?
Persistent discomfort in your left arm and shoulder, along with symptoms like sudden breathing difficulties, sweating, and exhaustion, can be concerning. While it's reassuring that your ECG, ECHO, TMT, and Holter tests were normal, and your doctor suggested panic attacks, persistent and worsening symptoms warrant further evaluation. It's important to follow up with your healthcare provider to reassess your condition and rule out other potential causes, such as musculoskeletal issues, nerve compression, or even conditions like GERD or anxiety disorders. Discuss your ongoing concerns with your doctor to ensure a comprehensive evaluation and appropriate management plan.
