I'm feeling really lightheaded and having some chest discomfort. A couple of years ago, I did some tests like ECG, ECHO, and TMT, and everything was normal except there was a comment about systolic dysfunction in the echo. My blood pressure was also fine at that time. But now, when I checked my blood pressure because of the lightheadedness, it was 10661. What could be causing these symptoms, and should I be worried about the systolic dysfunction part from before?

Feeling lightheaded and experiencing chest discomfort, especially with a history of systolic dysfunction noted in your echocardiogram, warrants immediate attention. Although your previous tests were normal, new or worsening symptoms should not be ignored. Your current blood pressure of 10661 mmHg is on the lower side, which may contribute to your lightheadedness. Given your symptoms and history, it is essential to seek medical evaluation promptly to rule out any potential cardiac issues or other causes. Please visit an emergency room or contact your healthcare provider as soon as possible for a thorough assessment and appropriate management.

A 3.5 mm VSD with medium RCC prolapse in a 21-year-old may require surgery, depending on the severity of symptoms and the potential for future complications. If surgery is needed, it could be either open-heart surgery or a minimally invasive procedure. The scar location and size would vary depending on the surgical approach.

I'm really worried about my father. He's 65 and has been dealing with diabetes for about 7 years now. Usually, his normal blood pressure is around 11075, but today I checked and it was 17080. His pulse rate is 90 and his oxygen saturation is 98. Does this seem normal or should I be concerned about these numbers? What should I do next?
Given your symptoms, I recommend consulting an: 1. *ENT (Ear, Nose, and Throat) Specialist*: As dizziness can be related to inner ear issues, such as benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). 2. *Neurologist*: To rule out any underlying neurological conditions that might be causing your dizziness. 3. *General Physician*: If you're unsure about which specialist to consult, start with a general physician who can evaluate your overall health and refer you to a specialist if needed. Before consulting a doctor: 1. *Keep a symptom journal*: Track when the dizziness occurs, how long it lasts, and any triggers you notice. 2. *Monitor your blood pressure*: Ensure your blood pressure is within a healthy range. 3. *Stay hydrated*: Drink plenty of water throughout the day. During the consultation: 1. *Share your medical history*: Inform your doctor about your previous experience with dizziness 3 years ago. 2. *Describe your symptoms*: Provide detailed information about your dizziness, including when it occurs, how long it lasts, and any triggers you've noticed.
