I'm a bit confused and worried after seeing my recent health checkup report. It mentions Grade 1 diastolic dysfunction, but everything else like chamber dimension, RWMA, and LV systolic function looks normal. The report also notes trivial MR and TR, with no PAH, clot, or vegetation, and my EF is 70. Can you help me understand what Grade 1 diastolic dysfunction really means and if there's anything I should do about it?
