Question

Can you help me understand these heart-related numbers? Im seeing terms like "left atrium 3.9cm", "aorta 3.5cm", and "EF 60". It mentions things like mild MR, trivial TR, and concentric LVH too. I'm curious if these results are normal or if there's anything to worry about, especially with LV diastolic dysfunction and no pericardial effusion mentioned. Could you explain them for me?

Question

I'm really worried about what it means to have a normal ECG but still have a short PR interval. Could having a short PR be dangerous enough to cause life-threatening arrhythmias? I'm not sure if this is something I should be really concerned about or if its common for my situation. Can you help clarify this for me?

Question

I'm curious about how risky it is to take a small amount of MDMA if I have right bundle branch block. I've used MDMA a lot before but just learned about my RBBB. Can you give me some advice on that?
