I'm really worried about my parents' health. My father, who's 71, has a CT value of 18 and is a heart patient. My mother is 70, her CT value is 6, and she's diabetic. Should I be concerned about their condition? Would appreciate any advice you can give!

View allI've been dealing with mitral valve prolapse and regurgitation, and I've had pericarditis a few times. The problem is I don't have health insurance, so I'm a bit worried about when I actually need to see a doctor. Lately, I've been experiencing numbness in my legs, feet, and arms, and I occasionally get dizzy when I stand up. There's also some discomfort in my chest, but it's not super intense. I'm really wondering if these are signs that I should be heading to a doctor despite not having insurance. What do you suggest I do?
These symptoms could indicate a worsening of your heart condition or potential nerve issues. You can take over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen for chest discomfort. However, it is crucial to address the underlying issues. For your heart conditions, you can take medications like Metoprolol for mitral valve prolapse and Colchicine for pericarditis. To improve blood circulation and relieve numbness, you can try Aspirin and Vitamin B complex supplements. Please visit a healthcare facility for a thorough evaluation and proper management of your symptoms.

I'm really worried about my incomplete RBBB turning into a complete RBBB in the future. Are there treatments like an angiogram or angioplasty that can help prevent this from happening? Is there any way to make my RBBB go back to normal, like it was before, so there's no block at all?
Its reversible,visit Cardiologist for appropriate management and have a regular follow up

I'm feeling pretty anxious because I've been experiencing shortness of breath for a few months now. I had an echo and ECG done, and the results said everything was normal except for something called grade 1 diastolic dysfunction. I'm not sure what that means, and even though my doctor said its nothing to worry about, I'm still a bit concerned. Could you help explain what grade 1 diastolic dysfunction is and whether it could be causing my symptoms? Should I be doing anything specific to manage it?
grade 1 diastolic dysfunction normal..salt restricted diet ,dash diet and regular aerobic exercises is advised to the patient.
