I'm really worried after seeing my father's recent echo report. It mentioned mild concentric LV hypertrophy and Grade 1 LV diastolic dysfunction. His LVEF is at 75, which I think is good? But then there are terms like MV, AE, AV normal, and TDI EE 10.18, and I'm not sure what all that means. Can you help me understand the report and what it means for his heart health?

I'm thinking about trying EECP therapy for my dad. He had a heart attack two years ago and he's got a stent in one artery, while the other two are clogged with 90% and 80% blockages. I've heard a lot of positive things about this natural bypass therapy, and some hospitals do offer it. But I'm just not sure about the results. Is it really effective? Or would angioplasty be the better option here?

EECP therapy can be a beneficial option for your father's condition. It is a non-invasive treatment that can help improve blood flow to the heart muscle by promoting the development of collateral circulation. However, in the case of significant blockages like 90% and 80% in his arteries, angioplasty may be a more suitable option to directly address the blockages. For the blockages your father has, angioplasty with stent placement may be recommended to open up the blocked arteries and improve blood flow to the heart. This procedure can help reduce symptoms and lower the risk of future heart-related complications. I recommend discussing these treatment options with your father's cardiologist to determine the most appropriate course of action based on his individual condition and medical history.

I checked my blood pressure earlier this evening and it read 12090. Is this normal, or should I check it again tomorrow? If its the same, do you think I should see a doctor?

I'm feeling this weird vibration on the right side of my chest every time I think about my phone. It started yesterday morning and seems to happen like every 30 minutes or so. What's strange is that I don't notice it when I'm busy, like cooking, but if I'm just sitting or reading, it really stands out. Could this be something medical, and should I be concerned?
