I've got my ECG results, and it mentions left axis deviation and early repolarization. I'm 21 and male, and I'm really confused about what this means for my health. Should I be worried about being medically unfit? What should I do next?

You should show your ECG report to a physician to get a clearer picture of your condition. Left axis deviation can be seen in various conditions, such as left ventricular hypertrophy, left bundle branch block and even inferior wall myocardial infarction. Early repolarisation refers to ST segment elevation with no underlying cause.

View allWhat's the deal with moderate left ventricular (LV) function if the LVEF is 45%? My dad had an Inferior Wall Myocardial Infarction (IWMI) last week. Any advice on what this means for his heart health and what steps we should be taking?
Moderate LV function means that the left ventricle of the heart is not pumping as effectively as it should be. An LVEF (Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction) of 45% indicates that the heart is pumping out 45% of the blood with each heartbeat, which is slightly below the normal range (55-70%). For your father's condition following an IWMI (Inferior Wall Myocardial Infarction), it is important to manage his heart health carefully. He may benefit from medications such as ACE inhibitors like Enalapril 5mg once daily, beta-blockers like Metoprolol 25mg twice daily, and statins like Atorvastatin 20mg once daily to help improve heart function and prevent further complications. Additionally, lifestyle modifications such as a heart-healthy diet, regular exercise, and stress management are also important for his recovery. Regular follow-up with a cardiologist is essential to monitor his heart function and adjust treatment as needed.

I'm really worried about my mom. She's 55 and during her recent health check-up, the TMT showed she's mildly positive for inducible ischemia. Her report mentioned that she exercised for 8 minutes, reaching a maximum METS of 10, and her heart rate went from a resting 70 bpm to a max of 164 bpm, which is 99% of her predicted maximum for her age. Plus, her resting BP was 12078 mmHg and it went up to 15090 mmHg. Can you help me understand what all this means and how serious it might be?
tmt report is normal.

I've been told I have mild left ventricular hypertrophy after a 2D echo test. Is this something that can be reversed if I manage to keep my blood pressure around 12080?
Ideally its irreversible,but in some cases when BP is maintained under control with good and heathy life style,its observed to be reversible
