I've been having some chest pain and got an echo done, and the report mentioned "normal diastolic dysfunction." I'm trying to understand what this means. Should I be worried about it being serious, or is it something normal? I'm a bit anxious about what this report could imply. Could you help clarify this for me?

Question

I'm really worried because my doctor said I have IRBBB on my ECG and that it's nothing to be concerned about. I'm 40 now and was fit until my early 30s. Will this affect my future life? I'm feeling really tense about it.

Question

I'm a 17-year-old guy and for the past three months, I've been having really frequent heart palpitations, like 4 to 5 times a day, sometimes even 6 or 7. It's just that feeling of my heart skipping a beat for a couple of seconds before it goes back to normal. It happens all of a sudden and I'm wondering if this could mean there's some heart disease going on. My resting pulse is 104. Also, I've noticed my hair has started thinning a bit. Could there be some link between the palpitations and things like nutritional deficiencies or low blood count?
