Question 1

I recently got my 2D Echo test results, and I'm trying to make sense of them. It mentioned things like mild thickening of the mitral valve, mild MR, mild concentric LVH, and that the chambers are normal with good LVRV function. There's also a mention of "No LV RWMA." I'm really wondering if these findings suggest a major issue with my heart or if it's more of a minor concern. I'm feeling a bit worried and would love some clarity on what this all means for my heart health.

Question 2

I'm a bit concerned about my health. My blood pressure is sitting at 13585. My cholesterol levels show 141 for cholesterol, 296 for triglycerides, 21 for HDL, 76 for LDL, and 59 for VLDL. My HDL cholesterol ratio is 6.73, and the LDLHDL ratio is 3.62...

Accepted Answer

Based on your current medication and health parameters, your blood pressure and lipid profile are within acceptable ranges. However, your HDL cholesterol levels are low, and your triglyceride levels are high. To address this, you can consider adding a medication like "Atorva TG" (Atorvastatin 10mg + Fenofibrate 160mg) to help improve your lipid profile. It is important to continue monitoring your levels regularly and follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

Question 3

I've been noticing this weird thing happening with my heartbeat over the last couple of days. It feels like my heart is beating really strongly, and I can actually see it beating when I look at my chest. Sometimes it even makes the dirt move around m...

Accepted Answer

This irregular heartbeat may be due to a condition called palpitations. I recommend you to consult a doctor for proper evaluation and diagnosis. In the meantime, you can take a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol (25-50mg) to help control your heart rate and rhythm. Additionally, try to reduce stress and avoid stimulants like caffeine and nicotine. If the symptoms persist or worsen, seek medical attention promptly.

Question 4

I've been having sweating and breathlessness when going up the stairs, and there's some numbness in my palm along with a light pain in my chest. I talked to a cardiologist who's pretty experienced, and after checking out my echo report, they've sugge...

Accepted Answer

Based on your symptoms and the recommendation of your cardiologist, undergoing angiography would be important to assess the condition of your heart vessels. This procedure can provide detailed information about any blockages or narrowing in the arteries supplying your heart. It will help in determining the best course of treatment for your condition. Please follow your cardiologist's advice and proceed with the angiography as recommended.

Question 5

What should be the time gap between two angiograms if needed? A family friend recently had one done, but the report seems a bit off. Could you give us some guidance on how long we should wait before considering another angiogram?

The time gape is 6-12 months.

Question 6

I recently had an ECG and felt really nervous during the test. The report mentioned "sinus tachycardia otherwise normal ECG." Should I be worried about this?

Accepted Answer

Sinus tachycardia is a condition where the heart beats faster than normal. In most cases, it is a normal response to stress, anxiety, or exercise. Since your ECG report shows sinus tachycardia but is otherwise normal, there is likely no cause for concern. However, if you continue to experience symptoms such as palpitations, dizziness, or chest pain, it would be advisable to follow up with your healthcare provider. No specific medication is needed for sinus tachycardia, but managing stress and anxiety can help.
