I'm 46 and have been diagnosed with grade 1 diastolic dysfunction. I'm really concerned and would like to know what precautions I should be taking. Also, is there a specific diet plan that I should follow to manage this condition better? I'm a bit worried and hoping you can guide me with some advice.

I've been having these palpitations for a while now, and lately, my hands start shaking with each heartbeat. If I rest something like a pen on my chest, it moves up and down. Plus, there's this visible pulsation, but I can't really pinpoint exactly where it's happening in my chest or abdomen. What could this mean?

It sounds like you may be experiencing palpitations along with visible pulsations. This can be concerning and may require further evaluation. One possible medication that can help with palpitations is Metoprolol (brand name: Lopressor). The usual dosage for palpitations is 25-100mg twice daily. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional for proper evaluation and management of your symptoms.

I'm really concerned about my sister's ultrasound report. It shows she has dilated cardiomyopathy and severe left ventricular systolic dysfunction with an EF of 33. She's also got severe pulmonary artery hypertension and an RVSP of 78 mmHg. The doctor mentioned there's no surgery option. Can you shed some light on what treatment options might be available for her situation?

As her ejection fraction is low she is not fit for surgery and needs to be on medications and absolute bed rest untill EF improves,follow your doctors advice

I've noticed my heart rate goes up to 110 or 120 beats per minute when I eat breakfast or lunch, and then it drops back to around 90 afterwards. I'm keeping track of this with my smart band. Is this something I should be concerned about?

No need to worry thats common,you can ignore it
