I'm a bit concerned after reading my eco report, and I need some clarity on a few things. It mentions "normal cardiac chamber" but then there's "concentric LVH grade lLVDD." What does that mean exactly? Also, it says "trivial MR" and "trivial AR"are these something I should be worried about? There's mention of "NO RWMA," which I'm assuming is a good thing, right? And it states "normal biventricular" function, but then what's "distolic function LVEF60"? Is that normal? Lastly, there's "NO IC clot VEGPE intact IAS IVS"so does this mean everything's okay overall? I'd really appreciate your insights.

Based on the eco report provided, the findings indicate normal cardiac chambers with concentric left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and grade 1 left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD). There is trivial mitral regurgitation (MR) and trivial aortic regurgitation (AR) present. There are no regional wall motion abnormalities (RWMA) noted. The biventricular and diastolic functions are normal with a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of 60%. There are no intracardiac clots, vegetations (VEG), or pulmonary embolism (PE) observed. The interatrial septum (IAS) and interventricular septum (IVS) are intact. Based on the findings, no specific treatment is required at this point. Regular follow-up with your healthcare provider is recommended to monitor any changes in your cardiac health.

Need some advice on cholesterol. I just got a master health checkup done and my results are a bit worrying. My total cholesterol is 200, HDL is 44, LDL is 150, and triglycerides are at 202. Is this considered too high? What steps can I take to reduce it, and how long might it take before I can check my cholesterol levels again?

Your total cholesterol level is slightly elevated, with high LDL and triglyceride levels. To help lower your cholesterol, you can start by making lifestyle changes such as following a healthy diet low in saturated fats and cholesterol, exercising regularly, and maintaining a healthy weight. In addition to lifestyle changes, your doctor may prescribe medication to help lower your cholesterol levels. For example, you can take Atorvastatin 20mg once daily to lower your LDL cholesterol. Fish oil supplements can also help reduce triglyceride levels; you can take Lovaza 1 gram twice daily. It typically takes a few weeks to a few months to see significant changes in cholesterol levels after starting treatment. However, it is important to follow up with your doctor regularly to monitor your progress and adjust your treatment plan as needed. You can retest your cholesterol levels after about 3 months of starting treatment to see the effects of the interventions.

I'm a 30-year-old male and I've been having some trouble with my BP medication. About a year ago, my blood pressure spiked to 175120 and my doctor prescribed Telma 40 along with another medicine for a week. Over time, I stopped taking Telma 40 and hadn't used it for the last 3 months. Recently, I switched to Prolomet XL 25, but it doesn't seem to suit me. What should I do?

It seems like you are experiencing some difficulties with Prolomet XL 25. Since Telma 40 worked well for you in managing your blood pressure, I would recommend you to consult your doctor for a prescription of Telma 40 again. Additionally, you can also consider adding a diuretic like Hydrochlorothiazide 12.5mg to your current medication regimen to help control your blood pressure more effectively. Remember to follow your doctor's advice regarding the dosage and frequency of these medications.
