I'm looking at the results from a recent heart evaluation, and I'm a bit concerned. It mentions "Concentric LVH, Mild MR, Trivial TR, normal pasp, No pericardial effusion, LVEF 60, No RWMA, Normal LV function," and my blood pressure reading was 210110. Could you help me understand what all this means for my heart health? I'm especially worried about the high blood pressure and terms like "Concentric LVH" and "LVEF 60." What should I be doing or asking my doctor about these findings?

The findings suggest concentric left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) with mild mitral regurgitation (MR) and trivial tricuspid regurgitation (TR). There is no pericardial effusion, and the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is normal at 60%. There are no regional wall motion abnormalities (RWMA) indicating normal left ventricular function. The blood pressure is elevated at 210110 mmHg. You may consider starting antihypertensive medication to help lower your blood pressure and reduce the risk of complications. A combination of medications such as Amlodipine 5mg and Lisinopril 10mg can be prescribed to help manage your blood pressure effectively. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider regularly to monitor your condition and adjust your treatment as needed.

Can drinking lots of water lower blood pressure?

Drinking water has role in blood pressure maintenance. When a person is dehydrated BP drops initially but later on kidneys reabsorbs more water rather than excreting in urine and vasopressin is released which constricts the blood vessels, both together can increase blood pressure. Hence, every person should drink at least 3 liters of water in a day to prevent dehydration and to maintain BP. One should also note that excess water intake should also be avoided which can put more stress on heart and cause fluid retention in the body.
