I've been having some weird symptoms lately. A few days ago, I woke up with this chest pain and it kinda hurt when I breathed. My inhaler helped a bit, but then yesterday, my blood pressure reading at the dentist was 15074, which is way higher than my usual 120-127 for the systolic part. I'm trying to figure out if I should just make an appointment with my GP or if it's serious enough to hit up urgent care or the ER. What do you think?

I'm a bit worried about my heart health and I recently had an echocardiogram done. I've heard of things like incomplete and complete RBBB, but I'm not sure how I can tell which one I have from the report. Can you help me understand what to look for to figure out if it's incomplete or complete RBBB?

To determine if your right bundle branch block (RBBB) is incomplete or complete, you would need to look at specific criteria on an ECG report. Incomplete RBBB typically shows a QRS duration of 100-120 ms, while complete RBBB shows a QRS duration greater than 120 ms. Additionally, complete RBBB usually has a wide, slurred S wave in leads I, aVL, V5, and V6. On an echocardiogram report, signs of RBBB may include right ventricular hypertrophy, delayed activation of the right ventricle, and abnormal motion of the interventricular septum. However, the definitive diagnosis of RBBB is made through an ECG rather than an echocardiogram. If you suspect RBBB based on your echocardiogram report, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

My husband's triglyceride level is pretty high at 515, so I'm a bit worried about what he can eat. I'm wondering if mangoes are okay for him. He's taking Stator F every night after dinner. Does that affect what fruits or foods he should avoid?

High triglycerides are a significant risk factor for cardiovascular disease, and managing diet is crucial in controlling these levels. While mangoes are nutritious, they are also high in natural sugars, which could potentially raise triglyceride levels if consumed in large quantities. Your husband can still enjoy mangoes, but it is important to do so in moderation and as part of a balanced diet that is low in refined sugars and unhealthy fats. Since he is taking Stator-F (a combination of statin and fenofibrate) to manage his triglycerides, it is essential to follow dietary recommendations from his healthcare provider. If you're unsure about how much mango is appropriate, it would be best to consult with his doctor or a registered dietitian who can provide personalized advice.
