View allMy dad's treadmill test results came back with a positive result, and the doctor mentioned he might need an angiography. The TMT report shows an ST depression of 1.5 to 2 mm. I'm really concerned about what this all means. Is this depression considered mild, or does it indicate a high possibility of blockage?
The ST depression of 1.5 to 2 mm on the TMT report indicates a moderate level of ischemia, suggesting a significant possibility of blockage in the coronary arteries. It is important to follow up with the angiography as recommended by the doctor to further evaluate the extent of blockage and determine the appropriate treatment. In the meantime, medications like Aspirin 75mg and Clopidogrel 75mg can be prescribed to reduce the risk of clot formation.

I'm dealing with some pretty bad acid reflux after eating heavy masala foods. I've got this weird dhada sensation in my chest, so I got an ECG done. The results said something about a left axis and poor R progression. Is this something normal, or should I be worried? Would love some advice on what to do next!
It sounds like you may be experiencing acid reflux symptoms and chest discomfort. The ECG findings of Left axis poor R progression may indicate certain heart conditions, but it is important to correlate these findings with your symptoms and overall health status. To address your acid reflux symptoms, you can try taking Omeprazole (brand name Prilosec) 20mg once daily before breakfast for a few weeks. Additionally, you can take Gaviscon (antacid) as needed for immediate relief. It is also recommended to avoid spicy and heavy meals, eat smaller meals, and avoid lying down immediately after eating. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
