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 allI've noticed that my heart rate is always above 90, and I also deal with anxiety. When I start overthinking, my heart rate shoots up to 105. Is this something normal, or should I be concerned and seek treatment?
A heart rate above 90 at rest and reaching 105 with anxiety and overthinking may indicate that your heart rate is elevated. To help manage your symptoms, you can consider taking Propranolol (Inderal) 10mg to 40mg as needed to help lower your heart rate and reduce anxiety symptoms. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional for proper evaluation and personalized treatment plan.

I'm trying to understand what's more accurate for diagnosing left ventricular hypertrophycardiac CT or echocardiography. Which one should I trust more for reliable results? I'm a bit worried and want to make sure I get the right diagnosis.
For the diagnosis of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), echocardiography is generally considered to have better accuracy compared to cardiac CT. Echocardiography provides real-time images of the heart's structure and function, allowing for a more detailed assessment of LVH. In contrast, cardiac CT can also be used to diagnose LVH, but it may not provide as much detail as echocardiography. In terms of accuracy, echocardiography is typically the preferred imaging modality for diagnosing LVH due to its ability to visualize the heart in real time and assess various parameters such as wall thickness and chamber size. Therefore, if you are looking for a more accurate result in diagnosing LVH, echocardiography would be the recommended imaging test. In some cases, both imaging modalities may be used in conjunction to provide a comprehensive evaluation of LVH. However, if you are specifically looking for the most accurate result, echocardiography is often the preferred choice.
