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.

View allI'm really worried about something. I've been dealing with diabetes for about three years now and high blood pressure for over 15 years. For that, I've been taking losium and istamate regularly. But lately, I've been experiencing a dry cough and feeling gassy. When I went to the Baptist Hospital, they said I needed to be admitted to the CCU and they ran some tests like ECG and blood tests, which came back negative. They also did a TMT and an echo. During the TMT, I felt tired after the second stage when the speed increased, and they told me I might have a heart problem, suggesting an angiogram. I decided against it and got discharged instead. I'm confused and not sure what to do next. Can you give me some advice on this?
It sounds like you are experiencing some side effects from your current medications. The dry cough and gas could be related to the medications you are taking for diabetes and high blood pressure. Since you are experiencing symptoms related to your heart, it is important to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation. I recommend discussing with your doctor about switching from losium to a different medication for high blood pressure to see if that helps with the cough and gas. Additionally, you may benefit from a medication adjustment for your diabetes as well. For your heart condition, it is important to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation and to discuss the possibility of undergoing an angiogram to assess the blood flow to your heart. In the meantime, make sure to monitor your blood pressure and blood sugar levels regularly, follow a healthy diet, and engage in regular physical activity as advised by your healthcare provider.

I'm having really bad pain in my left hand and shoulder since this morning. It's pretty severe, and I'm worried if it could be due to acidity or something related to the heart. How can I figure out what's causing it? Can you help me?
Left hand and shoulder pain can be a symptom of a heart-related issue, especially if it is severe. It is important to rule out any cardiac problems. I recommend you to take a tablet of Aspirin 325mg immediately and visit the nearest hospital for further evaluation and treatment. This can help in case it is related to a heart problem. If the pain is due to acidity, you can take an antacid like Tums (Calcium carbonate) 500mg. But it is crucial to get a proper diagnosis to determine the exact cause of your symptoms.

I'm trying to figure out if my ECG looks normal or if I should see someone about it. Could you help me understand what's going on with the T waves in leads II, III, aVF, V3, V4, V5, and V6? I'm feeling really anxious about this.
Abnormal T waves in leads II, III, aVF, V3, V4, V5, and V6 can indicate various cardiac conditions. It is important to further evaluate these findings to determine the underlying cause. In some cases, abnormal T waves can be a sign of ischemia, electrolyte imbalances, or other cardiac issues. I recommend consulting with a cardiologist for a thorough evaluation and appropriate management.
