Can left ventricular diastolic dysfunction be reversed? I'm really curious to know what methods or treatments are available to possibly improve this condition.

Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction can be managed and sometimes improved with lifestyle changes and medications. Some ways to help reverse left ventricular diastolic dysfunction include: - ACE inhibitors like Enalapril (5-20 mg once daily) - ARBs like Losartan (25-100 mg once daily) - Beta blockers like Metoprolol (25-100 mg once daily) - Calcium channel blockers like Amlodipine (5-10 mg once daily) - Diuretics like Furosemide (20-80 mg once daily) It is important to consult with your healthcare provider to determine the best treatment plan for your specific condition.

View allI just found out there are blockages in both arteries on the left and right sides of my heart. The doctor said they're about 6 to 8 months old. Should I be worried about how old these blockages are and what kind of treatment is usually recommended for this? I'm feeling a bit anxious about what this means for my health going forward.
As there are 2 vessels blocked you can be on conservative management and closely monitored if needed stenting might be done,follow your doctors advice

I've been dealing with chest pain for about 8 months now, and even though I got checked out, they didnt find any issues with my heart. I tried taking Myospaz and Pan 40 for a week, but it didnt really help. The pain just keeps coming back regularly. What should I do next?

I recently did some exercise for about half an hour, and afterward, I felt my heartbeat kind of radiating up to my head, which was really unusual. I could actually hear my heartbeat and felt this throbbing in my head. I did an ECG and echo2D a couple of weeks ago, and everything seemed okay back then. Is this something I should be worried about or should I go see a doctor?
It is not uncommon to experience a sensation of your heartbeat in your head after exercise, especially if you have been exerting yourself. This is known as pulsatile tinnitus and can be a normal response to physical activity. However, if you are also experiencing head throbbing along with this sensation, it may be worth monitoring and discussing with your physician. In the meantime, you can consider taking a mild pain reliever such as Acetaminophen 500mg to help alleviate any discomfort.
