I'm feeling pretty worried after getting my recent full body check-up results. The echo report showed something unusual, and I'm not sure what to make of it. Sometimes I get really anxious, and when I was getting the echo done, my heartbeat was racing at about 110 to 120 beats per minute because I was so scared. Could you take a look at my echo report and tell me what steps I should take next or if everything seems okay? The report mentions Mild MR and TR PASP at 32 mm Hg and LVEF at 65, but everything else seems normal. What should I do?

In your echo report, it mentions that you have mild mitral regurgitation (MR) and tricuspid regurgitation (TR) with a pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP) of 32 mmHg. Your left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is 65%, which is within the normal range. Based on the information provided, everything seems to be normal except for the mild MR and TR. Given your symptoms of feeling anxious and experiencing an elevated heart rate during the echo, it is important to address your anxiety. To manage anxiety and potentially reduce the impact on your heart rate, you can consider taking medication such as Propranolol. The usual dosage for anxiety is 20-40mg three to four times daily. It is also advisable to follow up with your healthcare provider to discuss the findings of your echo report and to determine if any further evaluation or treatment is necessary. Regular follow-ups and monitoring may be recommended to ensure your heart health is maintained.

Need some advice on cholesterol. I just got a master health checkup done and my results are a bit worrying. My total cholesterol is 200, HDL is 44, LDL is 150, and triglycerides are at 202. Is this considered too high? What steps can I take to reduce it, and how long might it take before I can check my cholesterol levels again?
Your total cholesterol level is slightly elevated, with high LDL and triglyceride levels. To help lower your cholesterol, you can start by making lifestyle changes such as following a healthy diet low in saturated fats and cholesterol, exercising regularly, and maintaining a healthy weight. In addition to lifestyle changes, your doctor may prescribe medication to help lower your cholesterol levels. For example, you can take Atorvastatin 20mg once daily to lower your LDL cholesterol. Fish oil supplements can also help reduce triglyceride levels; you can take Lovaza 1 gram twice daily. It typically takes a few weeks to a few months to see significant changes in cholesterol levels after starting treatment. However, it is important to follow up with your doctor regularly to monitor your progress and adjust your treatment plan as needed. You can retest your cholesterol levels after about 3 months of starting treatment to see the effects of the interventions.
