What does it mean if I have grade 1 diastolic dysfunction? Is it something I should be worried about? I just had an echo done and this came up in my report.

I'm really worried about my mom's condition. The doctors have found she has a ventricular septal defect and mentioned that an operation right now is pretty risky. Is there any other treatment option we could consider to help her?

I'm experiencing this strange sensation right when I start to fall asleep each nightit's like there's a tightness or pressure in my chest, and I sometimes feel like I'm suffocating. I've checked my blood pressure during these episodes, and it's around 12683, which I've read is normal. Plus, I've had an ECG and a 2D Echo, and both came back normal. Given all this, do you have any idea what might be going on or what I can do about this? It's really concerning, and I'd love some guidance.

Since all the reports are normal ,advised a psychiatric opinion for diagnosis of anxiety and other conditions..

I'm really worried because my cholesterol numbers have recently changed quite a bit. In July 2019, my LDL was 175 and HDL was 45, so my doctor put me on Atormac 10 mg. After taking it for three months, by October 2019, my LDL went down to 100, but my HDL also dropped to 32. My doctor said not to worry, but I'm concerned about my HDL levels dropping so quickly. What should I do about this?

Regarding your decreased HDL levels in just three months, it is important to focus on lifestyle changes to improve your HDL levels. You can start by incorporating regular physical activity, such as aerobic exercise, into your routine. Additionally, you can include healthy fats in your diet, such as those found in avocados, nuts, and olive oil. Omega-3 fatty acids, found in fatty fish like salmon, can also help raise HDL levels. In terms of medication, you can continue taking Atormac 10 mg as prescribed by your doctor to help lower your LDL levels. However, if you are concerned about your HDL levels, you may want to discuss with your doctor the possibility of switching to a different medication that can help improve HDL levels, such as fenofibrate. Remember to follow a healthy lifestyle, including a balanced diet and regular exercise, to help improve your HDL levels along with medication
