I'm really concerned about the results of my ECG. It mentioned something about Interior Ischemia and an abnormal T wave. I'm not exactly sure what that means or how serious it is. Could you tell me what the best treatment options are for this situation? Should I be worried?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
For Inferior Ischemia with abnormal T-wave on ECG, treatment typically involves addressing the underlying cause, such as coronary artery disease, and may include medications like beta blockers, nitrates, and antiplatelet agents, as well as lifestyle changes, and potentially invasive procedures like angioplasty or coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), under the guidance of a cardiologist.

I've been trying to understand my recent lipid profile test results and I'm a bit confused. My triglycerides are at 192, which seems high to me. I'm vegetarian and steer clear of fast and fried foods, so I'm not sure why my triglycerides would be elevated. I exercise every day and my weight is around 70 kg with a height of 5'6". I've been taking whey protein for the past two monthscould that be causing the increase in my triglycerides? I've stopped using whey last week and am currently on Ecosprin Av 7520 for the past two days. How can I best lower my triglycerides and boost my HDL levels? Would adding omega-3 to my diet be a good idea? I'd appreciate any suggestions.
Triglyceride level of 192 mgdL is slightly above the normal range (normal range is less than 150 mgdL), but it is controllable. It's good that you are already taking steps to address this issue. Whey protein can sometimes lead to increased triglyceride levels in some individuals, so stopping its intake was a good decision. To lower triglycerides and increase HDL, you can consider adding Omega-3 fatty acids to your diet. Omega-3 fatty acids, found in fish oil supplements or fatty fish like salmon, have been shown to help lower triglyceride levels and improve HDL cholesterol. You can try brands like Lovaza or Vascepa, with a dosage of around 1-4 grams per day, as recommended by your healthcare provider. In addition to Omega-3 supplements, maintaining a healthy diet rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins, along with regular exercise, can also help improve your lipid profile. It's important to continue monitoring your levels and follow up with your healthcare provider for further guidance and adjustments to your treatment plan.

My body's been acting up ever since I tried using minoxidilI started feeling heart palpitations and headaches, so I had to stop. I got an ECG done, and it showed 99 bpm, which my doctor said is sinus tachycardia. To manage it, I've been taking a beta blocker called Metoprolol, 25 mg split between morning and night for a month. But now I'm dealing with side effects like dehydration, a dry mouth, and feeling nauseous with no appetite. My sleep's all messed up too, waking up at 5:30 am just dying for some water. I stopped the medication on April 2nd, but it seems like the side effects multipliedstill facing palpitations, anxiety, stress, and all those other issues. But when I talked to my cardiologist, its like he wasn't even listening, just dismissed everything I said. Honestly, I can't focus, eat, or sleep right. Plus, my standing heart rate is hitting over 110 bpm. What should I do about this?
The side effects of minoxidil would have settled down by now .Metoprolol is for the associated anxiety only and tachycardia if any.Kindly share further details
