I'm a 27-year-old who's just gone through some heart tests like the ECHO, ECG, and Holter. The ECHO test showed something called grade 1 diastolic dysfunction, and the ECG came up with sinus tachycardia. Thankfully, the Holter test was normal. Should I be worried about these results? And is there a way to get the diastolic dysfunction back to normal?

based on your test results, it seems like you have grade 1 diastolic dysfunction, sinus tachycardia, and a normal Holter report. Grade 1 diastolic dysfunction is the mildest form of diastolic dysfunction and may not cause any symptoms. To help reverse diastolic dysfunction, it is important to focus on lifestyle changes such as maintaining a healthy weight, eating a balanced diet low in salt, exercising regularly, managing stress, and avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol consumption. In terms of medication, your doctor may prescribe medications such as ACE inhibitors like Lisinopril or ARBs like Losartan to help improve heart function. It is also important to follow up with your doctor regularly to monitor your condition and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan. If you have any concerns or notice any new symptoms, please consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management."

I'm 29 and feeling anxious about the possibility of having a heart attack. My blood pressure and blood sugar levels are normal, my TSH is normal too, I have no bad habits, and I weigh 55 kg. Is it still possible for me to have a heart attack?

It is uncommon for someone with your profile to have a heart attack at such a young age. However, there are other factors that can contribute to heart attacks, such as family history, cholesterol levels, and overall lifestyle. It is important to continue monitoring your health and consider regular check-ups with your doctor to assess your overall cardiovascular risk.

I'm really concerned about my mom's blood pressure. It's been over 160 for the last couple of weeks. She's currently taking Telma 40 and Cilacar 10, but it doesn't seem to help. Before she switched meds, she was on Amlogard 5 mg and Metosartan 50, but her doctor stopped those since she has ILD Lungs Disease. What should we do next?

Hi, based on your mother's condition of high blood pressure and ILD, it seems like her current medication regimen may not be effectively controlling her blood pressure. I would recommend consulting with her physician to discuss adjusting her medication. In addition to Telma 40 and Cilacar 10, her doctor may consider adding a medication like Amlodipine 5 mg (brand name: Amlogard) or Metoprolol 50 mg (brand name: Metosartan) to help lower her blood pressure. It's important to closely monitor her blood pressure and make any necessary changes under the guidance of her healthcare provider.

I'm 23 and have noticed a persistent dull pain under the second-to-last rib on the left side of my chest, about 23 inches below my left nipple. It's been happening for around 12 days now, mainly during deep breaths or when I try to stretch by pushing my chest out. I've never felt this pain before, and I'm starting to get worried because we do have a family history of high blood pressure and heart attacksmy grandfather and father, specifically. I've also been smoking tobacco for the last three years. Do you think this is something serious I should be worried about?
