I'm really worried about what's happening with my health. So, I had a brain stroke about 2 months ago, and my doctor recommended getting an Echo cardiogram. The test showed something called "Reduced diastolic compliance". I'm not sure what this means. Is this something serious? Should I be really concerned about it?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
This means that the heart is having difficulty relaxing and filling with blood during the resting phase of the cardiac cycle. This condition can lead to symptoms such as shortness of breath, fatigue, and fluid retention. To improve diastolic compliance, the doctor may prescribe medications such as ACE inhibitors like Lisinopril at a dosage of 10-20mg daily. Additionally, Beta-blockers like Metoprolol at a dosage of 25-50mg daily may also be recommended. It is important to follow up with the doctor regularly to monitor and manage this condition.

Abnormal ECG findings like abnormal R wave progression can indicate underlying heart conditions. It is important to further evaluate the cause of this abnormality.

Dosage and duration of treatment should be determined by a healthcare professional after a thorough evaluation. Regular follow-up with a cardiologist is recommended to monitor the condition.

I've been experiencing some pain in my left armpit and the far left side of my chest, near the armpit, for almost an hour. It's not super sharp, but it's definitely something I've never felt before. It went away after a while, and I feel fine now. Do you think I should be worried about this?
Electrocardiogram is advised ,kindly review with the reports..

I've been feeling a bit off with some discomfort and pressure in the middle of my chest for the past four days. It kind of comes and goes, and sometimes it suddenly gets really painful. I have this fear of vomiting (emetophobia) so anything unusual with my body really freaks me out. Can you help me figure out what's going on?
-Chest discomfort can sometimes be linked to things like indigestion or stress, but if it's been ongoing and sudden, it might be a good idea to consult a doctor to rule out anything serious, especially with your fear of vomiting. Your health and peace of
