I'm 58 and I've been dealing with diabetes for over two decades now. Recently, I found out I have mild graded left ventricular hypertrophy. Should this be something I'm really concerned about?

View allI'm looking for some advice. My husband, who's 29 and weighs around 92 kg, has been feeling a pinching sensation in his chest and some pain in his left arm for about 45 days now. He's a non-smoker, drinks occasionally, and his parents both had heart attacks before. Our cardio doctor suggested a CT coronary angio test, which is non-invasive. About six months ago, he had episodes of increased heartbeats, anxiety, and sweating, and we did a bunch of tests like the 2D Echo Doppler, TMT, and trop T, which all came back normal in September 2018. I'm wondering if this is a good step to take to get more clarity on what's happening with him. Are there any side effects from this test we should be aware of, and is there anything specific we should do to prepare before he takes the test?

Can left ventricular diastolic dysfunction be reversed? I'm really curious to know what methods or treatments are available to possibly improve this condition.
Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction can be managed and sometimes improved with lifestyle changes and medications. Some ways to help reverse left ventricular diastolic dysfunction include: - ACE inhibitors like Enalapril (5-20 mg once daily) - ARBs like Losartan (25-100 mg once daily) - Beta blockers like Metoprolol (25-100 mg once daily) - Calcium channel blockers like Amlodipine (5-10 mg once daily) - Diuretics like Furosemide (20-80 mg once daily) It is important to consult with your healthcare provider to determine the best treatment plan for your specific condition.

I'm trying to understand more about my recent test results. It mentioned something like mild mitral stenosis with trivial regurgitation and that my left atrium is dilated. Plus, there's something about the anterior leaflet of the mitral valve being mildly thickened, and the mitral orifice measuring 2.22 square centimeters. They also noted trivial mitral regurgitation with Doppler. What does all this mean for my heart health? Should I be worried? Any advice on what steps I should take next would be really helpful.
echo and angiography is advised,, cardiac opinion
