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 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.

I'm really concerned about my ECG report that shows poor R wave progression in V3. I've been dealing with this pain in my left leg and a bit of chest pain. Could you help me understand what this means and what kind of treatment I might need?
Your ECG report showing poor R wave progression in V3 may indicate a possible heart issue. The left leg pain and slight chest pain could be related to poor blood circulation or heart problems. I recommend you to take Aspirin to prevent blood clotting and improve blood flow. Additionally, you can take Atorvastatin to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart problems. Please consult a cardiologist for further evaluation and management.
