I'm having some mild shortness of breath along with chest tightness and a bit of back pain that spreads to my neck. I've done tests like ECG, echo, TMT, chest X-ray, diabetes checks, and PFT, and all came back normal, but my cholesterol was high. I'm taking Rosuvas for that and also Amlodipine for high blood pressure. My weight is 110 kg, and my BP is 14090. Should I be getting any more tests or changing my meds? I'm also in the process of trying to lose weight. What do you think?

I'm looking at my 2D echo report and trying to understand a couple of things. It mentions there's no regional wall motion abnormality and that my LV systolic function is good with a normal filling pattern. I'm relieved that there's no MR, AR, or precardial effusion, and no clots were found, but it says there's trivial TR and mild PAH. Could you help me understand what mild PAH means? From what you see in my report, how should I feel about these results overall?
