I'm a bit worried after reading my 2D echo report. It mentions mild tricuspid regurgitation and mild pulmonary hypertension with PASP by TR jet measuring 38 mmHg. Does this mean I definitely have pulmonary hypertension? And should I be concerned about it getting worse over time, like becoming moderate or even severe?

Mild pulmonary hypertension is indicated by a PASP (Pulmonary Artery Systolic Pressure) of 36-50 mmHg. This means that there is increased pressure in the pulmonary arteries. To manage mild pulmonary hypertension, your doctor may recommend lifestyle changes and medications such as sildenafil (Revatio) or tadalafil (Adcirca) to help lower the pressure in the pulmonary arteries and improve blood flow. It is possible for pulmonary hypertension to progress to moderate or severe levels in the future, but with proper management and regular follow-ups with your healthcare provider, the progression can be slowed down or even prevented. Regular monitoring and adherence to treatment plans are crucial in managing pulmonary hypertension.
