I'm worried about my pulse rate, which tends to be pretty high, between 100 and 120, and sometimes even hits 130 or more. I just got over dengue and noticed my pulse was between 90 and 110 during that time. Should I see a cardiologist right away, or is it okay to give my body a few days to rest first?

It is important to monitor your pulse rate closely, especially after recovering from dengue. A persistently high pulse rate can be a sign of an underlying issue that may need medical attention. In your case, since your pulse rate is consistently high and has even increased after recovering from dengue, it would be advisable to consult a cardiologist sooner rather than later. The cardiologist can evaluate your condition, perform any necessary tests, and recommend appropriate treatment. It is better to address any potential concerns promptly to ensure your heart health is optimal.

View allI'm a bit worried after being diagnosed with sinus tachycardia and an incomplete right bundle branch block. The doctor mentioned I should start taking trimetazidine. I'm not sure if it's really necessary or if there might be other options. Could you help me understand if I should go ahead with it?
Sinus tachycardia and Incomplete right bundle branch block are both cardiac conditions that may require treatment to manage symptoms and prevent complications. Trimetazidine is not typically used to treat these conditions. For sinus tachycardia, beta-blockers like Metoprolol can be prescribed to help slow down the heart rate. For Incomplete right bundle branch block, treatment may not be necessary unless there are symptoms or other heart conditions present. It is important to follow your doctor's recommendations and discuss any concerns or questions you have about your treatment plan.

I recently started feeling some pain on the left side of my chest and it made me really anxious, so I went to the hospital. The doctor had me do an ECG and a 2D Echo. According to the reports, the doctor said my heart is normal. Can you please take a look at my reports and provide your thoughts on them? I'm still a bit worried and could use some advice.
"Sir, based on the ECG and 2D Echo reports that you have provided, which indicate that your heart is normal, it is good news that there are no abnormalities detected in your heart. The pain in the left side of your chest could be due to various reasons such as muscle strain, acid reflux, or anxiety. To alleviate the pain, you can take over-the-counter pain relievers like Acetaminophen 500mg as needed for pain relief. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques and deep breathing exercises may help with the panic and anxiety symptoms. If the pain persists or worsens, it is advisable to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation. Take care."

I'm really concerned about why her blood pressure isn't considered normal or stable, especially when it sometimes goes up to 140 over 102. What could be causing these fluctuations?
Your mother might be showing early signs of developing systemic hypertension. Regular monitoring of her blood pressure will confirm the diagnosis, and she can be consequently started on a anti-hypertensive regimen of medication.
