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.

View allWhat if my heart rate is naturally between 90 and 110? I haven't had any problems so far, but I'm just wondering if there's any reason to be worried.
A resting heart rate between 60 to 100 beats per minute is considered normal for adults. A heart rate of 90 to 110 beats per minute can be normal for some individuals, especially if you are physically active or under stress. However, if you are experiencing no symptoms and have no underlying health conditions, this heart rate range may not be a cause for concern. It is always best to consult with your healthcare provider for a personalized assessment.

I've been consistently walking over 10,000 steps a day, or about 10 kilometers daily, for the last 4 to 5 months without missing a day. Recently, I noticed that my resting heart rate is around 55 to 60. Is that something I should be worried about? I had an ECG done about three months ago before my gallbladder surgery, and everything seemed fine back then. Would appreciate any advice or insight.
You mentioned having an ECG done before your gallbladder operation 3 months ago. A resting heart rate of 55 to 60 beats per minute is generally considered normal, especially if you are physically active and have a history of regular exercise. It can be a sign of good cardiovascular fitness. However, it's important to consider your individual health history and any symptoms you may be experiencing. Since you have had an ECG done recently, it would be best to consult with your healthcare provider to review the results and ensure that there are no concerning findings related to your heart rate. If you are not experiencing any symptoms such as dizziness, chest pain, or shortness of breath, a resting heart rate in this range is usually not a cause for concern.

I'm really concerned about what my cardiologist told me regarding aortic valve leakage. Can you explain what might be causing this condition? And he mentioned that the valve might need to be changed in the future. How serious is this situation, and what should I expect going forward?
The main reason for aortic valve leakage is usually due to a condition called aortic valve regurgitation, where the valve does not close properly and allows blood to leak back into the heart. This can be caused by conditions such as rheumatic fever, infective endocarditis, or congenital heart defects. In some cases, age-related changes or wear and tear on the valve can also lead to leakage. If the leakage becomes severe and starts to affect the heart's function, the cardiologist may recommend aortic valve replacement surgery.
