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 experiencing some chest pain on the left side whenever I take a deep breath. The pain also seems to radiate to my back. I'm having trouble sleeping because of the discomfort in both my chest and back. I'm really concerned about what's going on. Any ideas on what might be causing this and what steps I should take?

Ecg and chest x-ray is advised to the patient.

I'm a bit concerned about my blood pressure. It's usually around 13584 or sometimes 14084, but it never goes beyond 140. My doctor prescribed me torsemide for a short periodonly 20 tabletsand said it's mainly because of anxiety. Is this normal? Should I be worried about taking the torsemide, or is it safe to just stop after finishing the tablets like my doctor suggested?

A blood pressure reading of 13584 or 14084 is slightly elevated but not alarming. Your doctor prescribed torsemide for a short period to manage fluid retention, likely linked to anxiety. It's normal in such cases, but it's important to follow up if you continue to feel concerned.
