I'm really worried about my 62-year-old diabetic relative. He's had angina for over a year, and his ECG showed some troubling signs like a Q wave with T wave inversion. The echocardiogram was apparently normal, but the treadmill test came back positive, and the coronary angiogram revealed triple vessel coronary artery disease. He's stable now, thankfully, but they recommended PCI for the LCx and RCA. I'm just wondering what all this really means and where would be the best place for him to get this treatment? I'm feeling a bit lost here.

View allI'm 19 and I've been feeling my heart skip a beat for a few seconds, along with a feeling of heaviness in my chest. My ECG and sinus rhythm came back normal, but I can't help but worry if this is something to be concerned about, especially since I have anxiety issues. What do you think?
These symptoms can be related to your anxiety issues. However, if you are experiencing skipped heartbeats and chest heaviness, it is important to rule out any underlying cardiac issues. Since your ECG and sinus rhythm are normal, you may benefit from medications like Propranolol (Inderal) to help with the physical symptoms of anxiety. The usual dosage for Propranolol is 20-40mg taken orally 2-3 times a day. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques and seeking therapy for your anxiety may also be beneficial.

I was wondering if it's safe to reach maximum heart rate during running or other workouts, like getting up to 180 to 190 bpm. Is that okay, or should I be careful about something?
Exercising at a heart rate of 180 to 190 bpm can be safe for some individuals, especially those who are well-trained athletes. However, it is important to listen to your body and not push yourself too hard, especially if you are not used to exercising at such high intensities. It is recommended to gradually build up your exercise intensity to avoid any potential risks. If you are healthy and have no underlying heart conditions, reaching a heart rate of 180 to 190 bpm during exercise may be acceptable. Just make sure to stay hydrated, wear appropriate clothing, and stop exercising if you experience any unusual symptoms such as dizziness, chest pain, or shortness of breath. If you are looking to improve your cardiovascular fitness, you can consider using beta-blockers like Metoprolol at a low dose to help control your heart rate during exercise. It is important to consult with your doctor before starting any new medication regimen.
