I'm dealing with Celiac Disease and mild Asthma, and I'm a bit concerned about my recent blood and echo test results. The tests showed that my total cholesterol is at 2212, and there's a mention of mild LVH with Grade 1 LVDD. It got me worried about whether I'm at risk of any heart problems. Could you help me understand these results and what they might mean for my heart health?

Based on your test results, your total cholesterol level is 221 which is slightly elevated. For mild LVH (Left Ventricular Hypertrophy) and Grade 1 LVDD (Left Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction), it is important to manage your conditions to prevent any further complications. For your cholesterol level, you can consider taking a statin medication such as Atorvastatin 20mg once daily to help lower your cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart disease. For mild LVH and LVDD, it is important to follow up with your cardiologist for further evaluation and management. They may recommend medications such as Lisinopril 10mg once daily to help with your heart condition. It is essential to maintain a healthy lifestyle, including a balanced diet, regular exercise, and stress management, to support your overall health and well-being.

View allI'm really worried about my dad. He recently visited a doctor who suggested some blood tests along with ECG and TMT. Thankfully, all his blood parameters, including cholesterol, TG, and lipid levels, are within the normal range. But during the TMT, he experienced very mild chest pain, and the doctor marked it as TMT positive for RMI. I'm really concerned about what this means. Should we be considering angiography and maybe even angioplasty for him?

I'm having this left side chest pain that's been bothering me. I visited a cardiologist, had an echo and ECG done, and everything came back normal. Even my chest X-ray showed no issues. But the pain's still there, and it sometimes gets worse when I walk a long distance. I don't have a cough or any breathing problems. I do have bronchitis asthma, but I'm not experiencing any symptoms from that right now. What could be causing this? It's really concerning. Can you help me figure it out?

I'm really worried about the results from my ECG which said something about provocable myocardial ischemia, but I haven't had any cardiac symptoms of IHD. I'm only 48 years old and I'm not sure what this means for my heart health. Should I be concerned or do anything specific to address this?
It sounds like you have a positive exercise tolerance test (ITT) for provocable myocardial ischemia without any cardiac symptoms for ischemic heart disease (IHD) at the age of 48. In this case, you may benefit from starting a medication like Atenolol (50-100mg daily) to help reduce the workload on your heart and prevent further episodes of ischemia. Additionally, adding a medication like Aspirin (75-150mg daily) can help reduce the risk of blood clot formation in your coronary arteries. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
