I'm really worried about my mom who's 68. She's been diagnosed with mild concentric left ventricular hypertrophy and has an overall LVEF of 50-50. They also mentioned grade diastolic dysfunction. I'm just trying to understand, is this something serious that we need to be concerned about?

I'm dealing with blood pressure around 15090 and my heart rate seems higher than normal, sometimes going to 100. Two doctors suggested I start on Nebi 2.5mg twice daily, and while it made me feel really tired at first, that went away after two weeks. It's been five months on this medication now, but I'm noticing that my consciousness feels a bit off. I can't work or focus like I used to. What should I do about this?

I'm really puzzled about my friend's sudden passing. He was perfectly fine until about 10:30 in the morning, but out of nowhere, he had a severe cardiac arrest and died by 10:50. In the 48 days leading up to his death, he rarely ate food from home. I can't help but wonder if there might be anything like a slow poison that could have affected him. Could you shed some light on what might have happened?

While I understand your concern about potential poisoning given the changes in his eating habits, sudden cardiac arrest can happen without warning even in people who appear healthy. The period of irregular eating could be related to various factors like stress, depression, or underlying health issues. If you have serious concerns about the circumstances, I would encourage you to share them with the relevant authorities and discuss with his family about requesting an autopsy if one hasn't been performed. Most importantly, please make sure you're getting support during this difficult time - losing someone suddenly is incredibly challenging, and it's natural to have questions and seek answers about what happened.
