Question 1

I'm 32 and I noticed my heart rate hit 140 before I was even stressed, and during the second and third stages, it jumped up to between 190 and 202. My ECG came back normal otherwise. Should I be worried that this is risky for my heart or something serious? Is it possible for it to get back to normal with medication? Could this kind of change shorten the life of my heart? What kind of treatment or solution should I be looking into?

Accepted Answer

The ultrasound report indicates a PCO (Polycystic Ovary) pattern in both ovaries.

This means multiple small cysts are present, a common finding in women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS).

No abnormal solid or cystic lesions were detected, which is reassuring.

Ovarian size is within normal range (33x18mm).

Consult a gynecologist to discuss the report and determine next steps.

Further evaluation may be necessary to confirm or rule out PCOS.

Question 2

I'm really confused because my Echo and ECG tests came back normal, but I'm still experiencing these palpitations. I'm a GERD patient, and whenever these palpitations hit, I get really nervous. What could be causing this, and is there anything I should be doing or looking out for?

Accepted Answer

Palpitations despite normal Echo and ECG in a GERD patient could be due to acid reflux irritating the vagus nerve, leading to palpitations. In such cases, managing GERD effectively can help reduce palpitations. You can try taking Omeprazole 20mg once daily before breakfast for GERD.

Question 3

Are carrots good for high blood pressure?

Accepted Answer

The fiber and potassium in carrots may help manage blood pressure. The American Heart Association (AHA) encourage people to add less salt, or sodium, to meals, while eating more foods that contain potassium, such as carrots.
