Please refer to the detailed answer below

Detailed Answer:
Hello

Thanks for such a detailed query. I will try the answer the points one by one.

1. ECG is not much of a concern here.

2. Blood pressure is well maintained within normal limits.

3. TMT results are good considering the age group.

4. Echo is also normal .

5. Xray report is normal

6. Lipid profile is almost near normal.

7. The medication which the patient is on should be continued as prescribed.

She can take part in the sports according to her age group as far as she feel comfortable. The only point here is she should not exert too much and whenever she feels uneasy she should stop.

As she is on a small dose of beta blockers supermet Xl which decreases the heart rate, so if she exert too much it can cause symptoms of dizziness or giddiness as heart rate won't rise as required due to medicine effect.

Hope to have been helpful.

Kind regards
Dr Bhanu partap
