I'm looking at my 2D echo report and I'm a bit worried about my heart health. It says my mean PAP is 23.18 and PASP is 38mm Hg. There's also something about a peak tricuspid regurgitation velocity of 2.6, and it's noted as mild tricuspid regurgitation. The report mentions my ejection fraction is 60 and that I have good systolic function, with no diastolic dysfunction. I'm just wondering if there's a risk of pulmonary hypertension with these numbers?

Based on your 2D echo report, with a mean PAP of 23.18 and PASP of 38mm Hg, along with a peak tricuspid regurgitation velocity of 2.6 and mild tricuspid regurgitation, it indicates that there is a possibility of pulmonary hypertension. However, further evaluation and monitoring by a healthcare professional are recommended to determine the severity and appropriate treatment.

View allI'm really worried because a couple of months ago, I had some chest pain and when they did an ECG, it showed slight ST elevation in V3 and V4. The cardiologist I saw said it wasnt heart-related, but just to be sure, he had me do a TMT, and that turned out negative. Now, I had chest pain again and went to the hospital. They did another ECG that showed sinus rhythm with sinus arrhythmia and ST elevation, possibly early repolarization with normally inflected T wave, and called it a borderline ECG. Should I be concerned about something serious going on here?
"Based on your description, it seems like you are experiencing chest pain with some concerning ECG findings. The ST elevation in V3 and V4 from the previous ECG, along with the ST elevation and early repolarization in the recent ECG, can be worrisome. However, since your cardiologist has already ruled out any significant heart issues with a negative TMT, it is less likely to be related to your heart. The presence of sinus rhythm with sinus arrhythmia indicates normal heart rhythm variation, which is usually not concerning. Early repolarization with borderline ECG findings can sometimes be a normal variant in young, healthy individuals. To address your chest pain and ECG findings, your doctor may consider monitoring your symptoms, lifestyle modifications, and possibly medication. In case of persistent or worsening symptoms, further evaluation or consultation with a cardiologist may be necessary. For symptomatic relief of chest pain, you can consider taking over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen. However, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for a proper evaluation and management plan."

I've been prescribed Nebistar 2.5mg, but I've also come across Nebicard 2.5mg. Are these the same medication, or is there a difference between them? I'm a bit confused and would love some clarity on this.
