I've been dealing with hypertension for the past two years, and after taking medication, my blood pressure is finally normal. But now my ECG shows a nonspecific T-wave abnormality. Should I be worried about this? My local doctor mentioned it's normal, but I'm still a bit anxious about what it could mean.

My mom's ultrasound showed a poor acoustic window because of her body size. The doctor mentioned it might affect the results. I'm really worried does this mean she'll need surgery or can medications help her get better? What are our options here?
We need to see all her reports, examine her once and look into the gravity on her symptoms to decide the course of treatment best for her.

I've been feeling some pressure and uneasiness in my heart for the past week, and it usually lasts about an hour. Sometimes it feels a bit better when I cough, but it's only a temporary relief. I'm not experiencing chest pain or getting tired when I work out, which is puzzling. Could this be related to stomach gas or something else? I also got my lipid profile checked, and things seem a bit off with high triglycerides and non-HDL cholesterol. What could be causing these symptoms, and are there any changes I should make to my diet?
Based on your symptoms and lipid profile, the uneasiness and pressure at the heart lasting for about an hour could be related to your high triglyceride levels. The cough providing temporary relief may be due to associated gastric reflux. To address this, you should consider making some dietary changes to improve your lipid profile and overall heart health. I recommend reducing your intake of saturated fats, trans fats, and cholesterol-rich foods. Increase your consumption of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins. Additionally, incorporating foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids like fatty fish, flaxseeds, and walnuts can help lower triglyceride levels. In terms of medication, you may benefit from a prescription medication such as Atorvastatin (brand name Lipitor) to help lower your LDL cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of cardiovascular events. The usual starting dose for Atorvastatin is 10-20 mg once daily, but your doctor may adjust this based on your lipid profile and response to treatment. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management of your lipid profile and heart symptoms. Regular monitoring and adherence to lifestyle modifications and prescribed medications are crucial in managing your condition.
