View allI'm really concerned about the results of my ECG. It mentioned something about Interior Ischemia and an abnormal T wave. I'm not exactly sure what that means or how serious it is. Could you tell me what the best treatment options are for this situation? Should I be worried?
For Inferior Ischemia with abnormal T-wave on ECG, treatment typically involves addressing the underlying cause, such as coronary artery disease, and may include medications like beta blockers, nitrates, and antiplatelet agents, as well as lifestyle changes, and potentially invasive procedures like angioplasty or coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), under the guidance of a cardiologist.

I've been taking Vicks Action 500 and Saridon for my headaches, and recently I had a heart attack. Ive recovered, but now I'm really worried if these meds might have caused the heart issue. Also, my doctor gave me Dynapar injections for headaches quite a few times. I'm starting to wonder if using Dynapar so frequently could lead to heart problems too. Can this frequent use be a cause for concern?
Headache medications like Vicks Action 500, Saridon, and Dynaper may not directly cause a heart attack, but they can have side effects that may put additional strain on the heart, especially if used frequently or in high doses. Frequent use of caffeine (in both Vicks Action 500 and Saridon) and decongestants (like phenylephrine) may raise blood pressure and heart rate, which could potentially exacerbate pre-existing heart conditions. Dynaper doesnt directly cause heart attacks, but its effects on heart rate should be monitored, particularly with frequent use. It would be best to consult your cardiologist about the specific medications youre taking, especially after a heart attack. They might recommend alternative treatments that are safer for your heart. If you're still experiencing frequent headaches, your doctor may suggest an evaluation for underlying causes and alternative therapies.

I'm really worried because my heart rate is usually at 100 or above. I check it by counting the pulse on my neck, and it comes out to be something like 24 to 27 pulses in 15 seconds, which is more than 100 when I calculate it for a minute. I have a history of panic attacks that started back in 2015 with a very fast heartbeat, and I was told it might have been due to acid reflux. It happened again in 2019. I'm really scared of traveling, especially late at night during long journeys. I get these terrible thoughts about what if I have an attack and theres no one around to help, like if the train is passing through a jungle. These thoughts just make my heart race even more, and I end up feeling extremely scared. Can you please help me understand what's going on and how I can handle this?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of anxiety, especially given your history of panic attacks. The rapid heartbeat you are feeling could be related to anxiety and stress. To help manage your symptoms, I recommend trying relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises, meditation, or yoga. In terms of medication, you can consider taking a beta-blocker such as Propranolol. Start with a low dose of 10mg once daily, and you can increase it as needed under medical supervision. Beta-blockers can help reduce heart rate and physical symptoms of anxiety. However, it's important to consult with a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation and personalized treatment plan.
