I'm 20 and recently had two echocardiograms, one showing RVSP at 37 mmHg and the other at 29 mmHg. Both mentioned normal pulmonary artery and veins, and there's MVP with mild eccentric regurgitation. I'm worried about the possibility of pulmonary artery hypertension and whether it could be idiopathic. Could you help me understand what's going on?

View allI'm a bit confused and worried about my recent blood pressure readings and echo results. Usually, my BP is around 9070, but recently it's been up to 11090 or 11085, and then the cardiologist recorded it as 13090. My echocardiography showed a trace of AR and grade I LV diastolic dysfunction, yet the doctor said everything looked normal. Is it possible that this grade I LV diastolic dysfunction happened just because of my elevated BP at the time, and could it potentially go back to normal by my next echo? I've never really had high BP before, and now it's sometimes at 10070 or even back to 9070 mostly. Just trying to make sense of all this.
Hypertension medications to be continued, cardiologist opinion for echo.

Is sleeping good for high blood pressure?
People who sleep six hours or less may have steeper increases in blood pressure. If you already have high blood pressure, not sleeping well may make your blood pressure worse. It's thought that sleep helps your body control hormones needed to regulate stress and metabolism.

I'm really concerned after getting a report that mentions having a borderline with a short PR interval. Is this something that I should be worried about? What steps should I take next?
A borderline short PR interval may indicate a potential conduction abnormality in the heart. It is important to further evaluate this finding. The next steps would typically involve a thorough medical history, physical examination, and additional tests such as an ECG, echocardiogram, and possibly a Holter monitor to monitor heart rhythm over a period of time. In terms of medication, if necessary, a doctor may prescribe medications such as Beta-blockers like Metoprolol to help regulate the heart rate and rhythm. However, the specific treatment plan would depend on the underlying cause of the short PR interval and should be determined by a healthcare professional after a comprehensive evaluation.
