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?

View allI'm experiencing palpitations when I'm sitting and even while trying to sleep, and it's really starting to scare me. Is it possible for someone to sense their own arrhythmia, or should I be worried about something else?
Yes, patients can sometimes sense arrhythmias themselves, especially when they experience symptoms like palpitations. In your case, since you are feeling palpitations while sitting and sleeping, it is important to consult a doctor for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can try taking a low dose of beta-blockers like Metoprolol (25-50mg) to help control your palpitations.

I'm really worried because my blood pressure has been reading 150100 three times, and I've been taking Ozotel H as my doctor prescribed. I've been on the medication for the last three days, but I haven't seen any improvement in the readings yet. The doctor advised me to wait another two to three days, but I'm scared about the possibility of having to take medication for the rest of my life. I lead an active lifestyle, exercise daily, and there's no family history of high BP. I weigh 70 kg, am 5'7", and am 33 years old. Is there anything else I can do to lower my blood pressure?
It seems like you are experiencing high blood pressure while taking antibiotics for your cold. Ozotel H is a combination medication that contains Telmisartan and Hydrochlorothiazide, which is commonly used to treat high blood pressure. Since your blood pressure readings have not decreased significantly after three days of taking Ozotel H, it is important to follow your doctor's advice to wait for another two to three days. In addition to medication, lifestyle modifications can also help in managing high blood pressure. Since you are already doing daily exercise, continue with your exercise routine as it can help lower blood pressure. It is also important to maintain a healthy diet low in sodium and high in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. If your blood pressure readings do not improve or if you have any concerns, it is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.

I've been experiencing some concerning symptoms and I could really use some advice. My heart rate is around 50-60 when I'm lying down and my SPO2 is 98 with an RR of 16. Lately, I've been having chest pains that feel like needles. They last for just a few seconds or sometimes up to a couple of minutes. I had these issues about two months ago and got an ECG and a stress test done back then, both of which were normal. But now the pains on my left side have started coming back. Should I be doing any additional tests, or does it sound like everythings okay?
It sounds like you may be experiencing episodes of angina, which are chest pains caused by reduced blood flow to the heart. Since your ECG and Stress Test results were normal 2 months ago, it is possible that the symptoms you are currently experiencing could be related to a different issue. However, it is important to rule out any cardiac concerns. I recommend that you undergo a Holter monitor test to continuously record your heart's activity over a period of 24-48 hours. This will help to capture any abnormal heart rhythms that may not be detected during a standard ECG. Additionally, an echocardiogram may be beneficial to assess the structure and function of your heart. In the meantime, to manage your symptoms, you can take Nitroglycerin sublingual tablets as needed for chest pain. The usual dosage is 0.3 to 0.6 mg every 5 minutes as necessary, up to 3 doses. If the chest pain persists or worsens, seek immediate medical attention. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
