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.

I'm really concerned about my grandfather lately. He's been dealing with high blood pressure and hypertension, but now his feet are swelling and he's having chest pains too. He's currently taking gtn sorbitrate 2.6 cr twice a day and amlokind 10 mg, plus he uses a quikhale 250 sf inhaler. Could you help me understand why his feet might be swelling and suggest a medication that might help?
Swelling in the feet can be a common symptom in patients with high blood pressure and hypertension, especially in elderly individuals. It can be due to fluid retention caused by the heart's inability to pump blood effectively. In this case, considering your grandfather's age and existing conditions, it is important to address the underlying cause of the swelling. To help reduce the swelling in his feet, I recommend prescribing a diuretic medication such as Furosemide (Lasix) 20mg once daily. This medication will help to remove excess fluid from his body and alleviate the swelling in his feet. Additionally, given his chest pains, it is crucial to ensure that his heart health is well managed. I suggest adding Aspirin 81mg once daily to help reduce the risk of blood clots and relieve chest pain. Please consult with your grandfather's healthcare provider before starting any new medication to ensure it is safe and appropriate for his specific medical condition.

My arm and chest sometimes start to hurt at random times. Sometimes it's just my chest, sometimes just my arm, and other times both, with this throbbing sensation that can last for a couple of hours. What could be causing this? It's really worrying me.
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of angina, which is chest pain or discomfort caused by reduced blood flow to your heart muscle. The pain can sometimes radiate to the arm, neck, jaw, or back. It is important to consult a doctor for proper evaluation and diagnosis. In the meantime, you can take nitroglycerin sublingual tablets for immediate relief. The usual dosage is 0.3 to 0.6 mg every 5 minutes as needed, up to 3 doses. If the pain persists, seek medical attention immediately.
