Question 1

I've got an ECG report that says I have left atrial enlargement and mild left axis deviation, but my blood pressure is around 130. Should I be concerned about this?

Accepted Answer

Left atrial enlargement and mild left axis deviation on an ECG can be indicative of certain heart conditions. It is important to further evaluate these findings with additional tests such as an echocardiogram to assess the structure and function of the heart. In the meantime, maintaining a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise and a balanced diet can be beneficial. In terms of medication, you may consider taking medications such as Losartan (50mg) to help manage blood pressure and reduce the workload on the heart.

Question 3

I'm a bit concerned about my echocardiography results. It mentions "Grade I LV diastolic dysfunction" and "Trace AR." Can you explain what these mean? Like, how serious is this, and what should I be thinking about or doing next?

Accepted Answer

Grade I diastolic dysfunction means there is mild impairment in the relaxation of the left ventricle. As for trace aortic regurgitation, it indicates a small amount of blood leaking back into the heart's left ventricle during the relaxation phase. For Grade I LV diastolic dysfunction, you may be prescribed medications such as ACE inhibitors like Lisinopril 10mg once daily to help with blood pressure control and heart function. For trace AR, you may not need any specific treatment but regular monitoring by your healthcare provider is recommended.

Accepted Answer

It is difficult to predict exactly how many days it will take for your blood pressure to become normal after starting Telvas 3D. However, typically you should see some improvement in your blood pressure within 1-2 weeks of starting the new medication. It is important to continue taking both Amlosafe MT 50 and Telvas 3D as prescribed by your doctor for the best results. If you do not see significant improvement in your blood pressure after a few weeks, please consult your doctor for further evaluation and possible adjustment of your medication dosage.
