Question 1

I'm a bit worried after seeing my ECG report that mentions Severe TR PAH. Can you help me understand what this means? I'm really concerned about what it might mean for my health and if there's a way to treat or cure this. I've got the detailed report here if that helps.

Accepted Answer

Severe TR (tricuspid regurgitation) and PAH (pulmonary arterial hypertension) are significant findings. Tricuspid regurgitation means that the tricuspid valve in the heart is not closing properly, causing blood to flow backward into the right atrium. Pulmonary arterial hypertension indicates high blood pressure in the arteries that supply the lungs.

These conditions can lead to symptoms like fatigue, swelling in the legs and abdomen, and shortness of breath. The management of these conditions typically involves medications such as diuretics to reduce fluid buildup, vasodilators to lower pulmonary artery pressure, and possibly anticoagulants if there is a risk of blood clots. In some cases, surgical intervention may be required to repair or replace the tricuspid valve.

It's crucial to follow up with a cardiologist for a comprehensive evaluation and personalized treatment plan

Question 5

I'm wondering if it's okay to stop taking ecospirin 75 after recovering from COVID. Is there a recommended time to keep taking it if I only had mild symptoms? And what happens if I stop using it after a month? Could there be any side effects from sto...

Accepted Answer

Ecospirin 75 is a brand name for aspirin. Aspirin is often prescribed post-Covid recovery to prevent blood clots. The duration for taking aspirin post-Covid recovery varies depending on individual risk factors and the severity of the illness. It is important to follow your healthcare provider's recommendations regarding the duration of aspirin therapy. Stopping aspirin abruptly after 1 month of Covid recovery may increase the risk of blood clots, especially if you were prescribed aspirin for this purpose. It is important to consult with your healthcare provider before discontinuing any medication, including aspirin, to avoid any potential side effects or complications.

Question 6

I'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 docto...

Accepted Answer

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.
