I'm a bit concerned about what my recent echo showed. It mentioned something called Grade I diastolic dysfunction. Is this something normal that I shouldn't worry about or do I need to consider any treatment? Would really appreciate some guidance.

Question

I've been dealing with some chest pain for a few days now, and I decided to get an X-ray done. I'm really anxious and can't help but wonder if there's something serious going on. What do you think?

I'm 32 years old and recently found out from my echo scan that I have grade 1 diastolic dysfunction. I'm trying to understand what exactly grade 1 diastolic dysfunction means and what might have caused it. Should I be really worried about this? Could it lead to a heart attack or other heart disease down the road? My blood pressure is 13584 and my pulse is 93. I'm feeling pretty anxious about what all this could mean. Can you help clarify this for me? I've also attached my echo report for reference.

Question

I'm really concerned about my dad. He had a massive cardiac attack and the doctors told us that all three of his arteries were blocked. They managed to save him by placing a stunt in one of them. I'm just wondering, what do you think would be the best way forward now? Should we consider bypass surgery, or would it be better to place stunts in the other two arteries too? It's a lot to think about, and I just want to make sure we're making the right decision for his health.
