I'm feeling some discomfort in a few spots on both sides of my chest. My HDL cholesterol is low, and I recently had a mildly positive TMT test. What do you think could be going on, and is there anything I should do?

View allIs there any way to reverse LVDD grade 2 with an MV EA ratio of 1.03 and mild LVH? What kind of steps or treatments could help improve this condition?
To help reverse left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) grade 2 and mild left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), it is important to focus on lifestyle modifications and medications as per your doctor's recommendation. Some common approaches include: - ACE inhibitors like Lisinopril 10mg once daily - Beta-blockers like Metoprolol 25mg once daily - Diuretics like Furosemide 40mg once daily - Lifestyle changes such as regular exercise, a heart-healthy diet low in sodium and saturated fats, maintaining a healthy weight, and avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol consumption. These interventions can help improve heart function and potentially reverse LVDD and LVH. Regular follow-up with your healthcare provider is essential to monitor progress and adjust treatment as needed.

I'm getting ready for my aviation medical, and I had an ECG done. The report showed ST segment elevation in the anterior, large T waves, and it said "borderline ECG." I'm 20 years old, weigh 82kg, and I'm 176cm tall. Should I be worried about any of these findings? What do they really mean, especially with my age and size?
Based on the ECG findings of ST segment elevation (anterior), large T wave, and borderline ECG, along with your age, weight, and height, it is important to further evaluate these findings. These ECG changes could indicate various conditions such as myocardial infarction, myocarditis, pericarditis, or other cardiac issues. I recommend consulting with a cardiologist for a thorough evaluation and appropriate management. In the meantime, it is important to avoid strenuous physical activity and follow a heart-healthy diet. Medications such as aspirin, nitroglycerin, and beta-blockers may be prescribed based on further evaluation by your cardiologist.

I've been dealing with high blood pressure and tachycardia since 2012 and it's been pretty frustrating. I've done all sorts of tests and nothing seems to be working out. It's especially annoying with the tachycardia because whenever I start on medication, it works for a bit, then just stops being effective after a while. Right now, I'm taking a mix of meds including metoprolol 150mg (50mg three times a day), ntp 25mg, prazosin 5mg, diltiazem 90 Sr, cilnidipine 10mg, and losartan 50mg among others. This whole situation is starting to feel a bit hopeless. I'm curious if there's anything else I should be trying, or if there's some reason these meds lose effectiveness so quickly. Any insight you could give would be really appreciated.
