My dad just had a 2D Echo after his ECG showed an irregular heartbeat, and I'm a bit worried. The report mentions grade 2 Diastolic Dysfunction and says something about an aortic valve being sclerotic. How serious is this? He's been feeling really weak and lethargic lately. What can we do to help him feel better?
