View allI'm really concerned after getting a report that mentions having a borderline with a short PR interval. Is this something that I should be worried about? What steps should I take next?
A borderline short PR interval may indicate a potential conduction abnormality in the heart. It is important to further evaluate this finding.

However, the specific treatment plan would depend on the underlying cause of the short PR interval and should be determined by a healthcare professional after a comprehensive evaluation.

I'm a bit worried about my recent TMT report. It came back as mildly positive for provocable ischemia. I'm currently taking atenolol 50mg and atorvastatin 10mg. What does this mean for my heart health, and should I be concerned or is there more I need to do?

Given that you are taking Atenolol 50 mg and Atorvastatin 10 mg, it is crucial to review these findings with your cardiologist. They may recommend additional diagnostic tests such as a coronary angiogram or stress echocardiogram to further evaluate your condition. In the meantime, continue taking your medications as prescribed, and adhere to lifestyle modifications like a heart-healthy diet, regular exercise within advised limits, and stress management. If you experience any worsening symptoms, seek immediate medical attention.
