Question

I'm 39 years old and my ECG report says I have grade 1 diastolic dysfunction. Recently, I've been dealing with chest pain and a burning sensation in my heart. Is this something to worry about and is there any treatment available? Ive noticed these symptoms especially after having COVID, and I've also gained some weight since then. Any advice would be really appreciated.

Question

I'm a bit worried about my blood pressure. I checked it in the evening, and it was 146 over 93. Is this normal? I'm 25 years old and weigh 86 kg. Do you think I should be concerned about this reading?

Question

I'm really worried about my brother. He had COVID-19 a few months back, and he's still dealing with some tough symptoms like a racing heart rate, tremors, tinnitus, and fatigue. Hes only 30 and was super healthy and fit before all this. His echo was normal a while ago, but the cardiologist did mention arrhythmia back then. Lately, he's been feeling chest pain just from walking or climbing stairs, and his heart rate shoots up to 150-180. It's affecting his daily life a lot post-COVID. We got an NT Pro BNP test done, and it came back at 160. Could this be an early sign of heart failure? Should we look into more tests or anything else?
