I'm a 28-year-old male and I've noticed that for the past 6 months, my resting heart rate has consistently been over 100, sometimes getting up to 120. I'm really wondering if this is something normal or if I should be concerned about it. Is this something I need to get checked out?

View allI'm a bit confused and worried about my recent ECG. Last year, my ECG was labeled as "borderline," but the doctor at the time said everything was normal. Now, another doctor is advising me to seek an expert opinion and visit a good hospital. Can you help me understand what's happening with my heart health?

I'm trying to understand the results of my recent 2D echo and colour Doppler test. It mentioned things like LEFT VENTRICLE ASH, TRILEAFLETS, and an AORTIC VALVE that's thickened. It also noted some stuff about COLOUR DOPPLER and something called AV GRDT 5mmHg AR GRADE 1. They concluded I have HYPERTENSIVE HEART DISEASE and ASYMMETRICAL SEPTAL HYPERTROPHY among other things. They said I have a NORMAL LV SYSTOLIC FUNCTION with an EF of 64%, but I'm not quite sure what that means. Given this, is my condition something thats curable or can be managed? Would surgery or implants help at all? I don't have diabetes and my heart rate stays around 50-60 bpm consistently. I've been on Zabeta X for nine years, then LODOZ 2.5 for a year, and now CONCOR 2.5 for the last 15 days. Also, I've been taking Restyl 0.5 at bedtime for 9 years. What should I consider doing next?
1. Whether it is curablecontrolled? Based on the diagnosis of hypertensive heart disease, asymmetrical septal hypertrophy, sclerotic aortic valve with mild aortic regurgitation, and left ventricular diastolic dysfunction, these conditions can be managed and controlled with appropriate treatment and lifestyle modifications. While these conditions may not be completely curable, their progression can be slowed down and symptoms can be managed effectively with proper medical management. 2. Whether surgery or implants in any way will be of any help? In your case, since you have normal left ventricular systolic function and no regional wall motion abnormalities at rest, surgery or implants may not be necessary at this point. However, in some cases where there is severe aortic stenosis or regurgitation, surgical interventions such as aortic valve replacement may be considered. It is important to follow up with your cardiologist for further evaluation and to determine if any surgical interventions are needed in the future. 3. Your considered opinion, suggestion, solution? Considering your current medication regimen, it is important to continue taking Concor 2.5 as prescribed by your healthcare provider. Additionally, lifestyle modifications such as maintaining a healthy diet, regular exercise, managing stress, and avoiding smoking can help in managing your condition. Regular follow-up visits with your cardiologist are essential to monitor your heart health and adjust your treatment plan as needed. If you have any concerns or experience any new symptoms, please consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

I'm really worried because my homocysteine level is 93. Is that really dangerous? I also have MVP with moderate MR. I'm relieved that my white and red blood cells are at normal levels. Should I be concerned about the high homocysteine given my condition?
Hi, based on your homocysteine level of 93, it is considered high. Elevated homocysteine levels are associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular diseases. To lower your homocysteine levels, you can take folic acid, vitamin B6, and vitamin B12 supplements. I recommend taking a combination of medications such as Foltx (folic acid 1 mg, vitamin B6 25 mg, vitamin B12 1 mg) once daily. It is important to consult with your healthcare provider for proper monitoring and management.
