Question

I'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?

Question

I had an AVR with a mechanical valve about 9 years ago and I'm wondering about my life expectancy now. I make sure to go for my yearly checkups, and my last echo showed an EF of 60, LVDD of 50mm, LA 36mm, with PW and IVS at 1.1cm. My INR level is 2.87. Could you give me some insights on these numbers and what they mean for my future?

Question

I'm a bit concerned about my dad, who's 72. His blood pressure is 100 over 60, and while he seems healthy and manages to walk around 3 to 4 kilometers each day, I'm wondering if there's anything I should be worried about or keep an eye on. Could you let me know if this needs any special attention?
