I'm a bit worried after seeing the results of my 2D ECHO. It mentions "diastolic dysfunction present EA," and I'm not quite sure what that means. Could you explain it to me?

Diastolic dysfunction means that the heart is not able to relax and fill properly during the resting phase of the cardiac cycle. This can lead to problems with the heart's ability to pump blood efficiently. In this case, you may be prescribed medications like ACE inhibitors (e.g. Enalapril) or beta-blockers (e.g. Metoprolol) to help improve heart function. The dosage will depend on your specific condition and needs.

I've recently found out that I have a heart blockage issue and I'm really worried about what this means for my health. Is there any Ayurvedic treatment that could help with clearing the heart blockage? Im looking for a more natural approach if possible. Any advice would be greatly appreciated as I'm feeling quite anxious about this whole situation.

Ayurvedic treatments for heart blockage focus on lifestyle modifications, dietary changes, and herbal remedies; consider the following: Triphala, Arjuna, and Amalaki to reduce cholesterol and inflammation; Abana, a polyherbal formulation, to improve cardiac function; Panchakarma therapies, such as snehana and swedana, to detoxify and rejuvenate; and Rasayana Chikitsa, a rejuvenation therapy, to improve overall cardiovascular health; however, consult an Ayurvedic practitioner or cardiologist before starting any treatment, as Ayurvedic remedies may interact with modern medications or worsen underlying conditions.

I'm Rao, 29, working in IT support in Chennai. I recently got an ECG report with some concerning results: Sinus Rhythm, Left Atrial Enlargement, RSR pattern in V1-V2, slight ST depression, and mild left axis deviation. Should I be worried about these findings? Can they be managed with mild medication or meditation, or is something more serious going on? Would really appreciate your insights.

based on the ECG report results you provided, it shows that you have Sinus Rhythm, Left Atrial Enlargement, RSR Pattern in V1V2, Slight ST Depression, and Mild Left Axis Deviation. For the Left Atrial Enlargement, you may consider taking medication such as Losartan 50mg once daily to help with the condition. For the Slight ST Depression, you can try medication like Aspirin 75mg once daily to manage it. For the Mild Left Axis Deviation, there is no specific medication needed, but regular monitoring by your healthcare provider is recommended. In addition to medication, incorporating meditation and stress-reducing techniques into your daily routine can also be beneficial for your overall heart health. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management. Take care, and best regards.

What is a good blood pressure by age?

In earlier times, Blood pressure was defined according to age. With all the new research data, Hypertension is defined only by increase in numbers in blood pressure which applies similarly for all adults above 18 years of age. Normal blood pressure is a reading less than 120/80 mm Hg. Any reading above 120/80 mm Hg checked consequently for three days needs a doctor's opinion.
