Question 1

Hey, I've got my mom's ECG report here and I'm a bit worried. She's 55 and was dealing with some pretty high blood pressure at 200100. She's been taking Tritelsar 80 as prescribed, and her blood pressure's come down to 13090, which is great. But, I'm still concerned about whether this is something serious or life-threatening? She's also been working really hard on getting healthier over the past year by doing brisk walking, yoga, basic workouts, and she's cut back on salt in her diet too. Could you help me understand the ECG report a bit?

Accepted Answer

The ECG report shows sinus rhythm with no significant abnormalities. Given your mother's history of hypertension, it is important to continue monitoring her blood pressure regularly. Tritelsar 80 hs is a good choice to help control her blood pressure. It is important for her to continue with her current lifestyle modifications such as exercise, yoga, and a low-salt diet. There is no indication of a worrisome or life-threatening disease based on the ECG report. However, it is essential to follow up with her doctor regularly to ensure her blood pressure remains controlled and to address any concerns. In summary, continue with Tritelsar 80 hs as prescribed by the doctor, monitor blood pressure regularly, and maintain a healthy lifestyle with exercise and a low-salt diet.

Question 2

I've been dealing with some chest pain for the last couple of months and have noticed a bit of blood in my spit in the mornings on random days. I got a full body check-up, but everything seemed okay except my thyroid and cholesterol levels were slightly elevated. What should I do next?

Accepted Answer

Given your symptoms of chest pain and occasional blood-tinged morning spit, despite a largely normal full-body checkup, it's essential to consult a pulmonologist or a cardiologist to rule out underlying conditions such as pulmonary embolism, pneumonia, or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), and to further investigate the cause of your symptoms, especially since your thyroid and cholesterol levels are only slightly elevated.

Question 3

I keep waking up with chest pain in the morning. I've already had an ECG, echo, TMT, and chest X-rays, and everything came back normal. I'm currently taking acidity tablets. Sometimes I even feel a pinning sensation in my chest. Do you have any advice on how I can make this pain go away?

Which arm to measure blood pressure right or left?

Both the arms can be used for BP measurement and sometimes, your doctor might take two readings from two arms to check for any variations too. Generally, it's best to take your blood pressure from your left arm if you are right-handed.
