I've been feeling really worn out and having a hard time sleeping because of my breathing troubles. I recently found out my ejection fraction is at 40. I'm super worried about it and want to know what I can do to feel better and improve my situation. Any advice on how to handle this?

View allI'm a bit worried about my recent 2D echo results. It mentions incomplete RBBB and Grade 1 LV diastolic dysfunction. Everything else seems normal, like the cardiac chamber dimensions and valve functions, with no wall motion abnormalities and a good LVEF of 60. Should I be concerned about these findings, and what do they mean for my heart health? Is there anything specific I need to look out for or any lifestyle changes I should consider?
Based on the findings from your 2D echo, you have incomplete right bundle branch block (RBBB) and Grade 1 left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction. The report indicates that your cardiac chamber dimensions are normal, with no wall motion abnormalities present at rest. Your LV systolic function is good, with a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of 60%. However, there is evidence of Grade 1 LV diastolic dysfunction. The cardiac valves, including the mitral, aortic, tricuspid, and pulmonary valves, are all normal. Additionally, there are no issues with the septae (IASIVS), clotvegetation, or pericardial effusion. The great arteries (aortapulmonary artery) are also normal. Based on these findings, no specific medication is typically prescribed for incomplete RBBB or Grade 1 LV diastolic dysfunction. However, it is important to continue monitoring your heart health regularly with follow-up appointments and lifestyle modifications as recommended by your healthcare provider.

I'm having this pain in my left leg that's been bothering me for about 15 days now. I'm 84 and have a history of heart issues, so I'm regularly on medications like Ecospirin, Amlokind for my blood pressure, and some others like Nitrolong and Losar, though I've recently stopped taking Renozex. The pain hits me when I walk. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

I'm a 33-year-old guy who hits the gym pretty regularly. I had my blood pressure checked around 2 p.m. and it was 140 over 80. Is that normal? Should I be concerned?
A blood pressure reading of 14080 is slightly elevated. For individuals under 60 years old, the ideal blood pressure is typically considered to be below 12080. Since you are physically active and regularly go to the gym, lifestyle modifications can be the first step in managing your blood pressure. However, if your blood pressure remains consistently elevated, medication may be necessary. I recommend you try to incorporate more cardiovascular exercise and a low-sodium diet into your routine. If needed, you can consider taking medications like Losartan 50mg once daily to help lower your blood pressure. Remember to consult with your healthcare provider for personalized advice.
