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?

I'm really concerned because my pulse rate is consistently over 100. Could this be something serious? What kind of treatments are available, and are there specific precautions I should be taking to manage this? I'm really worried and would appreciate any advice you can give.

A pulse rate consistently above 100 beats per minute is known as tachycardia. The underlying causes of tachycardia can vary, including stress, anxiety, dehydration, anemia, thyroid disorders, heart conditions, and certain medications. To treat it, you can try relaxation techniques, stay hydrated, and avoid stimulants like caffeine. If the problem persists, you may need medication such as Metoprolol (25-50mg) to help regulate your heart rate. It is important to monitor your pulse regularly and consult with your doctor for further evaluation and management.

I'm a bit worried because I noticed that whenever taking Ecosprin 75mg, there's sometimes a bleeding problem. Could this be related to certain foods I'm eating? I used to take Colsprin 100mg, but it's discontinued now, and the same thing happened with ASA 50mg. Are there any alternatives you could recommend?

I'm really concerned about my triglyceride levels, which are over 700 mgdL. Could you advise me on what foods I should be eating or avoiding? Also, do you know what kind of medication I should consider?

For high triglyceride levels, it is important to follow a healthy diet and lifestyle. You should focus on consuming foods that are low in saturated fats, trans fats, and cholesterol. Foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids, such as fatty fish (salmon, mackerel, sardines), flaxseeds, and walnuts, can help lower triglyceride levels. Increase your intake of fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean proteins. Avoid or limit intake of sugary foods and beverages, refined carbohydrates, alcohol, and saturated fats (found in red meat, butter, cheese). It is also important to maintain a healthy weight and engage in regular physical activity. As for medication, your doctor may prescribe statins such as Atorvastatin or Rosuvastatin to help lower your triglyceride levels. They may also consider prescribing fibrates such as Fenofibrate or Omega-3 fatty acid supplements to help manage your triglycerides. It is important to follow your doctor's advice closely and make the necessary lifestyle changes to improve your triglyceride levels.
