I'm really concerned about my dad's heart health. He had a mild heart attack back in 1995 but never went through any angiography. He seemed fine up until December 2021, when a routine check-up revealed he has aortic stenosis. It's a bit confusing because he doesn't have any symptoms like breathlessness, and his cholesterol levels are normal. He's been on Ecosprin Gold 10 since 2014, but now another cardiologist is suggesting he switches to Ecosprin AV 7510. I'm just wondering, is that change in medication okay? I really need some expert advice on this.

I've recently had a TMT test done last month, and while I was on the treadmill, I started feeling really breathless and dizzy. It was kind of scary, but the doctor said the results were normal. I've got the TMT result attached. Is it common to feel like that even if the results come out okay, or should I be worried about something else?

I'm going through my echo report and have a few questions. It mentions normal LV with normal systolic function and no segmental wall motion abnormality, which sounds good, but I'm not quite sure what all that means. Should I be concerned about anything specific? It also says theres no vegetation or LV clot, which is a relief, but could you explain what "mild TR with mild PAH" means? And is a fast heart rate during the test something to be worried about? My EF is 60%, but I'm not sure if that's normal or not. Any insights would be appreciated!

Based on the Echo Report, everything seems to be within normal limits except for the mild tricuspid regurgitation (TR) and mild pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). For mild TR and mild PAH, you can take Tablet Sildenafil 20mg once daily to help with the pulmonary hypertension. It is important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and management.
