I'm trying to understand what the results from my ECG mean. It shows an incomplete right bundle branch block, but my echocardiogram came back normal. Do I need to be worried about anything, or is there something specific I should be doing next?

I'm 22 years old and my blood pressure is 160100. I know I'm obese, could that be causing the high BP? I'm trying to lose weight now.
your obesity is likely contributing to your high blood pressure (HBP), as excess weight can increase blood vessel resistance, cardiac output, and sodium retention; losing weight through a combination of diet, exercise, and lifestyle changes can help lower your BP, aim for a 5-10% weight loss to start

I'm concerned after seeing something on my dad's ECG report that mentioned diastolic dysfunction. He had a heart attack back in 2006 but hasn't had any problems for 11 years. Should we be worried about this diastolic dysfunction showing up now? What does it really mean for his heart health moving forward, especially given his heart history?
The ECG report indicating diastolic dysfunction in a patient with a history of a heart attack in 2006 is concerning, despite the absence of recent issues. Diastolic dysfunction refers to abnormalities in the heart's relaxation phase, which can lead to impaired filling of the heart chambers. To address this, it is important to manage the underlying heart condition effectively. In this case, prescribing medications such as ACE inhibitors like Lisinopril or ARBs like Losartan can help improve diastolic function and reduce the risk of further complications. Additionally, beta-blockers such as Metoprolol can be beneficial in managing heart conditions and improving overall heart function. Regular follow-ups with a cardiologist are essential to monitor the heart's health and adjust the treatment plan as needed.
