I'm looking at my echocardiography report and I'm a bit worried. It says things like IVSTD 03 mm, LVPWD 07 mm, LVIDd 70 mm, FS 13, LVIDs 61 mm, and EF 28. I'm not sure what all of that means, but I'm concerned about whether these measurements are okay. Am I actually fit? Can you help me understand this?

Based on your echocardiography report, it indicates that you have a reduced ejection fraction (EF) of 28%, which is below the normal range (55-70%). This may indicate a decrease in the pumping function of your heart. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management. In terms of medication, you may be prescribed medications such as Carvedilol

View allI'm feeling really worried about some symptoms I've been experiencing. I've been having mild chest pain in both my chest and some pain in my shoulder and back when I'm at rest. My ECG showed WPW, but my echocardiogram came back normal. The doctor mentioned these symptoms aren't cardiac-related, which was a relief at first, but then my routine TMT test came back positive with a report of ST depression ischemia. I'm also concerned about my cholesterol levels, with total cholesterol at 139, HDL at 33, and LDL at 103. Given my situation and age, is there some risk I should be aware of? What should I do because I'm really worried about my health? By the way, I don't feel any pain while I'm working or walking.
Mild chest pain in both the chest while resting and shoulder and back pain, ulcer and anxiety. ECG found WPW and echo normal. Doctor said nothing to worry. Symptoms are non-cardiac but in routine test TMT test came positive, conclusion in report was ST depression ischemia. My overall cholesterol is 139, HDL 33, and LDL 103. Is there some risk as per my age? What to do? I am really worried a lot. I have no pain while working or walking. Based on your symptoms and test results, it is important to address the positive TMT test with ST depression ischemia. This could indicate a risk of heart disease, especially with your cholesterol levels. To manage this condition, you can start taking a medication like Atorvastatin (Lipitor) 20mg to help lower your LDL cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart-related issues. Additionally, considering your anxiety and chest pain, you can take medications like Pantoprazole (Protonix) 40mg for ulcer symptoms and an anti-anxiety medication like Lorazepam (Ativan) 0.5mg to help with anxiety symptoms. It is also recommended to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management. Regular exercise, a healthy diet, and stress management techniques can also help improve your overall health and reduce the risk of heart disease.

I've been experiencing some chest pain in the center of my chest after I eat. It's been happening for the past couple of days, and the pain comes and goes throughout the day. Sometimes, the pain is in my heart and left chest, and it's really bothering me. I also feel it a lot in the right chest, in the middle of the two chests. I can't easily visit a clinic because it's far away and with corona, I'm trying to stay safe. Is there any medicine you can suggest that I can get from a medical shop nearby? I'm really worried and would appreciate your help.
take tablet zerodol and tablet pantoprazole

I'm curious if I should be concerned about my heart that starts pounding after I climb stairs, run, or even just fast walk. It also happens if I get up too quickly from lying down. I've done all the blood tests and an ECG as my doctor suggested, and everything came back normal. Is there something I should worry about?
An echo and ecg is advised.
