I'm a bit confused about the changes in my LVEF readings. Initially, my echo showed an LVEF of 55, but a month later, it increased to 70, just 30 minutes after undergoing a TMT. Is it normal to have such variations, and should I be concerned about this?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
The increase in Lvef from 55 to 70 after 30 minutes of tmt could be due to the positive effects of the medication. To maintain and improve your heart function, you can continue taking medications like Carvedilol 6.25 mg twice daily and Lisinopril 10 mg once daily as prescribed by your healthcare provider. Regular follow-up with your doctor is important to monitor your heart function and adjust your treatment plan if needed.

I've been taking medication for high blood pressure and I'm just wondering what the normal range for blood pressure should be. Can you give me some advice on this?
The normal range for blood pressure values is typically around 12080 mmHg. For individuals on antihypertensive medication, the target blood pressure may vary slightly based on individual health conditions and guidance from your healthcare provider. Generally, maintaining a blood pressure below 13080 mmHg is often recommended to reduce the risk of cardiovascular complications. It's important to regularly monitor your blood pressure and follow your doctor's advice on medication and lifestyle changes to keep it within the target range.

Why does my chest feel tight?
Some medical causes for chest tightness can stem from a muscle strain, asthma, ulcers, a rib fracture, pulmonary hypertension, and gastroesophageal reflux disease. Aside from a medical reason, chest tightness can be caused by an active stress response, also known as the âflight or fightâ response.
