I'm trying to understand my echocardiography report and it's a bit confusing. It mentions terms like LVH, RWM, and systolic function, and I see numbers related to valves and arteries. It mentions things like Aorta 3.9 cm, LA 3.4 cm, and LV 5.3x3.2 cm, with an EF of 70. Could you help me figure out what this means? Is everything normal, or should I be worried?

I'm experiencing something that's got me really concerned. Whenever I stand up, I suddenly feel dizzy, everything seems to go black for a moment, and I start sweating. I can't keep my balance and need to hold onto something to avoid falling over. This isn't just a one-time thing; it happens a lot. I've even fainted a couple of times because of it. Do you have any idea what could be causing this?

I'm looking at my mom's ECG and echo reports, and I'm kind of worried. The ECG mentions poor R wave progression from V1 to V3, and the echo report says she has grade 1 left ventricular diastolic dysfunction. I'm not sure what that means. The thing is, she doesn't have any heart issue symptoms like chest pain or shortness of breath. Could you help me understand what these findings imply?
