I'm really worried about some recent health reports I've got. My TSH levels were high at 10.3, so my doctor increased my thyroid medication from 100mg to 125mg. Then after about 25 days, my TSH dropped to 0.70, and I was advised to cut down the medication to 75mg. I'm also confused because my TMT test came back positive for inducible myocardial ischemia, but my ECG and echocardiography were normal. The doctor is now suggesting I go for an angiogram. I'm really anxious about whether these thyroid level changes could be affecting my TMT results. Should I be rushing into getting the angiogram, and is there a real chance of having heart issues even though the ECG and echo were normal? Any advice would be really appreciated.

I'm Aryan, age 24, and I've noticed that my heart rate goes up after I eat, usually below 90. Normally, my resting heart rate is between 65 and 72, but it climbs to 90 post-meal. I've had both an ECG and an echo, and everything turned out normal, but I'm still pretty anxious about it. Do you think I should see a gastroenterologist?

A heart rate increase after a meal, especially up to around 90 beats per minute, can be normal as your body works to digest food. Given that your ECG and echo are normal, it is less likely to be a heart-related issue. If you are experiencing significant anxiety about this, or if you have other gastrointestinal symptoms like bloating, discomfort, or indigestion, it might be helpful to consult a gastroenterologist. They can evaluate if there's a digestive-related cause for your symptoms and provide reassurance or treatment as needed.

I'm dealing with a right bundle branch block and experiencing some head dizziness that just won't go away. It's been really hard to focus at work because of these syncope episodes. Do you have any advice or remedies that might help with this?

It's important to address the underlying cause of your symptoms. In the meantime, to help manage your dizziness, you can try taking Betahistine (brand name: Serc) at a dose of 16 mg three times a day. This medication can help improve blood flow in the inner ear and reduce dizziness. Additionally, make sure to stay hydrated, avoid sudden movements, and consider wearing compression stockings to improve blood flow. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please seek further medical evaluation.
