I'm reviewing my angiogram results, and it's making me pretty anxious. It mentions a "20% stenosis" in the distal left main, and a "90% stenosis" in the proximal left anterior descending artery, plus a "60% stenosis" in the mid LAD. The distal LAD is stated as normal, but there's a "40% stenosis" in the diagonal. Also, it says my right coronary artery has a "90% eccentric stenosis" in the distal part, though the rest is fine, as well as the PDA and minimal disease in PLV. Could you help me understand what all this means, and what should be done? I'm feeling really lost here.

"Based on the findings of your coronary angiogram, it appears that you have significant blockages in your left anterior descending artery (LAD) and right coronary artery (RCA). To address the blockages and improve blood flow to your heart, a treatment plan may include the following: - For the 90% stenosis in the proximal LAD, a coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery may be recommended. - For the 90% eccentric stenosis in the distal RCA, a percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with stent placement could be considered. - Medications such as aspirin, clopidogrel, beta-blockers, ACE inhibitors, and statins may also be prescribed to manage your condition and reduce the risk of further complications. Please consult with your cardiologist to discuss these treatment options and determine the best course of action for your specific case."

View allI'm really worried after seeing my father's recent echo report. It mentioned mild concentric LV hypertrophy and Grade 1 LV diastolic dysfunction. His LVEF is at 75, which I think is good? But then there are terms like MV, AE, AV normal, and TDI EE 10.18, and I'm not sure what all that means. Can you help me understand the report and what it means for his heart health?

I've been wondering if you could help me figure out what's going on because I've been feeling strange lately. Around 12 April, I tested positive for COVID, but luckily, it was mild, and the only real issue was losing my sense of smell, which came back after about 10 days. But for the past 8-10 days, I've been experiencing this weird sensation all over my bodyalmost like heart palpitations, though I'm not entirely sure if that's what it is. It's like I can feel my heartbeat in my stomach, neck, and just about everywhere in my body, like my whole body is pumping. It tends to disappear when I'm doing something else, but comes roaring back when I'm trying to relax. If I focus on it too much, my heart really starts pounding before eventually calming down. It's really unsettling and sometimes makes me feel anxious and on edge. Do you have any idea what might be causing this or what I should do about it?
It sounds like you may be experiencing palpitations and anxiety following your COVID-19 infection. To help with your symptoms, you can try taking Propranolol 20mg twice a day. This medication can help reduce palpitations and anxiety by slowing down your heart rate. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises or mindfulness meditation may also be beneficial in managing your symptoms. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
