Question

I'm feeling pretty anxious because I've been experiencing shortness of breath for a few months now. I had an echo and ECG done, and the results said everything was normal except for something called grade 1 diastolic dysfunction. I'm not sure what that means, and even though my doctor said its nothing to worry about, I'm still a bit concerned. Could you help explain what grade 1 diastolic dysfunction is and whether it could be causing my symptoms? Should I be doing anything specific to manage it?

Question

I've been experiencing some chest tightness on and off for the past 1.5 years. It'll usually happen and last for about 2 minutes, making it hard to breathe or move my upper body. Recently, I woke up in the middle of the night to get some water and felt the same tightness with a slight pain in my chest and heart. I went to a cardiologist and had an ECG and a 2D echo test, but they both came back normal. The doctor advised me to rest, and I did, but the chest tightness keeps happening. Why is this still going on? Could there be another cause, and should I see someone else for this? Any ideas on what might be causing it?

Question

Hey, my mom just had a 2D echo test and stress test done. The echo test came back normal with an LVFH of 60. However, during the stress test, she only managed to stay on the treadmill for 2 minutes because she's not very active and is a bit overweight. Our doctor has now recommended an angiography since the stress test wasnt normal. Do you think we should be concerned and go forward with the angiography?
