I'm really concerned about my mom's health after her recent checkup. She's got this LDL cholesterol level of 232, and the echocardiogram showed something called Trivial TR Grade 1 diastolic dysfunction. They also mentioned LVEF at 62 and that the TMT was positive for inducible ischemia. She's 49, doesn't have blood pressure or sugar issues, but the doctor suggested an angiogram to look further into it. I'm wondering if it's really necessary?

View allI'm really worried about my cousin. Her heart rate is consistently over 120, and her blood pressure is averaging around 14080. What's strange is she doesn't seem to have any symptoms. Can you explain why her heart rate might be so high all the time and if it's something we should be seriously concerned about?
An ecg and echo is advised to the patient. cardiologist opinion.

I'm a bit worried because about a month ago I started having constant chest pain and it spread to my left shoulder and hand. I got a general checkup and found out my blood pressure was 160100, but my ECG and 2D echo and sugar levels were normal. They did say my triglycerides and uric acid were high, and I have a fatty liver, so I've been on a strict diet for three months, cutting out salt and doing regular walks. After 10 days, my blood pressure dropped to 12080, which I guess is good! My dad and grandpa had heart issues, so I'm a bit concerned if it's hereditary. Right now, Im on Telma 40 and Concor 5mg but since my blood pressure is normal, Im not sure if I should continue with these meds. Also, my left shoulder and chest still hurt. Can you help me figure out what's going on? I'm really confused right now.
as you have family history you are at risk sooo do not stop them,its because of those medicines your BP is normal,follow healthy lifestyle and do follow your doctors advice

I'm dealing with Rheumatoid Arthritis and I'm on methotrexate. Recently, I've been experiencing heart palpitations, like up to 12 times a minute, mostly in the evening, but now it's happening more often. My heart rate's been an average of 107, but right now it's at 91 bpm. I've got an appointment on Wednesday at the heart hospital to get things checked out. But I'm really curious about when this stuff would be considered an emergency. It's making me feel pretty uncomfortable. Any advice?
It is important to monitor your symptoms closely. If you experience severe chest pain, shortness of breath, fainting, or dizziness along with the heart palpitations, it could be a sign of a more serious issue and would be considered an emergency. Since you are already scheduled for an appointment at the heart hospital on Wednesday, it is best to discuss your symptoms with the healthcare provider there. They will be able to evaluate your condition and provide appropriate guidance.
