I'm feeling a bit worried after our recent echocardiography showed mild pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and moderate tricuspid regurgitation. Can this one test really confirm I have PAH, or should I be looking into more testing? And what should I expect in terms of life expectancy with mild PAH? Is there any chance that this condition can be cured?

Cardiologist opinion is advised to the patient.

I'm feeling really worried because I've been experiencing chest pain whenever I walk or exert myself. I had a TMT test done, and it was negative. They tried doing a PFT test, but it couldn't be performed. My X-ray came back normal, and the 2D echo showed 60. What could be causing these chest pains despite all these tests being normal? I'm really concerned about what might be happening.

Do Troponin test, need detail history , can guide

I'm a bit concerned and looking for advice about stopping my Concor Cor 2.5mg medication. My doctor suggested I should stop taking it directly, but I'm worried if thats the right approach. Could you give me a second opinion on whether it's safe to quit Concor Cor 2.5mg permanently? My 2D Echo shows normal LV function.

No ,you cannot stop the medication suddenly since it may worsen the symptoms, physician opinion is advised..
