My sister's pulse rate is around 120, and she's feeling dizzy. Is this cause for concern? Should we see a doctor, or could this be something normal?

A high pulse rate of 120, especially when accompanied by dizziness, should not be ignored. It is important to consult a doctor for proper evaluation and treatment. In the meantime, you can give her a tablet of Metoprolol (brand name Lopressor) 25mg to help lower her heart rate. Make sure she rests and stays hydrated.

What does a borderline ECG with an unconfirmed diagnosis mean on an ECG report? Is it something I should be worried about? My heart rate is 93, PR is 99, QRS duration is 82, QT is 330, and QTC is 411. Could you help me understand what these numbers indicate?

Borderline ECG unconfirmed diagnosis means that there are some findings on the ECG that are not definitive enough to make a clear diagnosis. In your case, with a heart rate of 93, PR interval of 99, QRS duration of 82, QT interval of 330, and QTc interval of 411, these values are within normal limits. However, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and interpretation of the ECG results. No specific medication is needed based on this information.
