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 really worried right now because my mom's been having chest pains. We took her to the doctor, and after doing the echo and ECG tests, they found out her ejection fraction is low, with an LVEF of 40-45. The doctor said we should wait 5 days for an angiography test, but I'm anxious. Do you think it's safe to wait that long or should we do it sooner?
Yes, it is important to follow your doctor's recommendation to undergo the angiography test. This test will provide more information about the blood flow to the heart and help determine the best course of treatment for your mother's condition. Waiting for 5 days should not cause any harm, but it is important to monitor her symptoms closely and seek medical attention if there are any sudden changes or worsening of chest pain.

I'm experiencing some pain in my hand after the angiogram test. Could you let me know what might help ease it? Im a bit worried about why this is happening.
After an angiogram test, it is common to experience some pain or discomfort at the site where the procedure was done. To help reduce the pain in your hand, you can take over-the-counter pain medication such as acetaminophen (Tylenol) or ibuprofen (Advil). Make sure to follow the recommended dosage on the packaging. Additionally, applying a cold compress to the area for 15-20 minutes a few times a day can help reduce swelling and pain. If the pain persists or worsens, please consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
