View allI'm looking at my 2D echo report and trying to understand a couple of things. It mentions there's no regional wall motion abnormality and that my LV systolic function is good with a normal filling pattern. I'm relieved that there's no MR, AR, or precardial effusion, and no clots were found, but it says there's trivial TR and mild PAH. Could you help me understand what mild PAH means? From what you see in my report, how should I feel about these results overall?
That not a matter of concern just consume healthy diet and maintain regular physical activity follow your doctors advice

I'm a bit worried because I just got some results back and I'm not sure what to make of them. My blood pressure is reading 13090 and my recent echo shows I've got Grade 1 Diastolic Dysfunction. I'm wondering, can losing weight help reverse this condition? Also, my ECG indicates a sinus rhythm, which I believe is normal, but should I be concerned?
Yes it can be reversed,consume balanced diet and maintain healthy lifestyle

I'm really concerned about my recent master checkup results. The doctor mentioned I have an abnormal heart rhythm where my heart stops for 1.8 seconds. He said it's a birth defect and suggested I get a pacemaker. I've been feeling dizzy lately, and I'm wondering if that's related to my heart issue. Do you think it's a good idea to go ahead with the pacemaker? Are there any other treatments or alternatives you would recommend?
Yes, the dizziness could be related to the abnormal heart rhythm causing brief pauses in the heart's electrical activity. A pacemaker is commonly recommended for individuals with significant heart rhythm abnormalities like yours to help regulate the heart's rhythm and prevent pauses that can lead to symptoms like dizziness. Alternative treatments may include medications to help control the heart rhythm, but in cases where there are significant pauses in the heart rhythm, a pacemaker is often the most effective and safest option to prevent complications and improve quality of life. It is advisable to follow your doctor's recommendation to have a pacemaker implanted to help regulate your heart rhythm and prevent further symptoms like dizziness.
