I'm really concerned about my mom's health after her recent checkup. She's got this LDL cholesterol level of 232, and the echocardiogram showed something called Trivial TR Grade 1 diastolic dysfunction. They also mentioned LVEF at 62 and that the TMT was positive for inducible ischemia. She's 49, doesn't have blood pressure or sugar issues, but the doctor suggested an angiogram to look further into it. I'm wondering if it's really necessary?

yes angiogram is advised to the patient..

I'm looking over my recent ECG report and I'm a bit worried about understanding it. It shows various measurements like QRS 84ms, QTQTcB 360439 ms, PR 148ms, and more stuff like that. I'm not sure if anything seems off, especially with these values like P 92ms and RRPP 672650 ms, and how they all add up. Also, theres something about Sokolow 1.3mVNK from 13 May. Could you explain what these all mean and if I should be concerned about anything unusual here?
