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.

View allI'm a 28-year-old guy and I've been smoking weed daily since I was nine. I don't drink at all, and I consider myself to be quite fit. But for the last 34 days, I've noticed the left side of my chest is a bit swollen and sore, although it's not painful to touch. Should I be worried about this? Could it be something serious?
It's concerning that you are experiencing swelling and soreness in the left side of your chest. This could be due to various reasons, including inflammation, muscle strain, or even a potential underlying health issue. However, given your history of smoking weed since a young age, it's important to consider the impact of smoking on your respiratory and cardiovascular health. I recommend that you stop smoking immediately and seek medical attention for a proper evaluation. In the meantime, you can take over-the-counter anti-inflammatory medication like ibuprofen (e.g., Advil) to help with the pain and swelling. However, it's crucial to consult with a healthcare professional for a thorough assessment and appropriate treatment.

I've been noticing my heart feels like it's pounding pretty hard, especially after eating. Before meals, my blood pressure seems normal, but once I've had something to eat, it shoots up to around 130. Could this be linked to any vitamin deficiencies I'm not aware of?
The symptoms you are experiencing may be related to a condition called postprandial hypotension, which is a sudden drop in blood pressure after eating. To help manage this, you can try increasing your fluid and salt intake, eating smaller meals more frequently, and avoiding high-carb or high-sugar foods. Additionally, you may benefit from taking medications like Midodrine to help stabilize your blood pressure. However, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan.

I've been noticing this weird thing happening with my heartbeat over the last couple of days. It feels like my heart is beating really strongly, and I can actually see it beating when I look at my chest. Sometimes it even makes the dirt move around me. It doesn't happen all the time, just randomly throughout the day. Could you help me understand why this might be happening and what I should do about it?
This irregular heartbeat may be due to a condition called palpitations. I recommend you to consult a doctor for proper evaluation and diagnosis. In the meantime, you can take a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol (25-50mg) to help control your heart rate and rhythm. Additionally, try to reduce stress and avoid stimulants like caffeine and nicotine. If the symptoms persist or worsen, seek medical attention promptly.
