I recently had an echo test and it showed Grade 1 diastolic dysfunction and mild mitral regurgitation. My ECG also has prominent R waves and my blood pressure is pretty high at 130100. I'm only 29 years old and I'm really concerned about what all this means for my health. Is there something serious going on here? What steps should I take next?
