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?

View allI'm really confused about my recent medical test results. I initially went to the doctor for a gastric problem, and they told me to take a troponin test. The result came back positive, with a level of 0.03, which worried me. But then, my family doctor suggested I get a second opinion, so I went to MMM Chennai on the same day, and their test showed a negative result. Now I'm not sure which result to believe or what steps I should take next. Could you help me figure out what I should do?
Troponin is a cardiac marker used to diagnose heart conditions. In your case, since there is a discrepancy between the two test results, it is important to consider further evaluation. I recommend consulting with a cardiologist for a detailed assessment. In the meantime, you can consider taking medications like Aspirin 75mg once daily and Clopidogrel 75mg once daily to prevent any potential cardiac issues while awaiting further evaluation.

I'm a bit concerned about some symptoms I've been experiencing. My heart sometimes feels like it's pounding even when I'm just standing. There are times when I can feel my radial artery and it seems like my heartbeat pauses and then starts again. I had an ECG done earlier, and it showed something like an incomplete RBBB with ST and T changes. I even occasionally feel a pulse in my back. Could this be something serious? Should I be worried about these results?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms related to an irregular heartbeat. Based on your description and ECG findings of incomplete right bundle branch block (RBBB) with ST and T changes, you may benefit from a medication called Metoprolol (brand name: Lopressor) to help regulate your heart rate and rhythm. The usual starting dose for Metoprolol is 25-50mg twice daily, but the dosage may vary depending on your specific condition and response to the medication. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
