I'm scheduled for a TAH at Muslim Maternity Hospital and was told to get a cardiologist's opinion for fitness what exactly do they check for and is this something I should be worried about? My surgery is coming up soon and I'm not sure what to expect from the cardiology evaluation

Cardiac fitness check includes ECG, 2D echo, and clinical evaluation to ensure you're safe for anesthesia and surgery.

I'm 20 years old and I've been diagnosed with sinus tachycardia. I also have an overactive thyroid, and I've been told my heart's right ventricle is a little bigger than the left. Could all of this be a serious health risk?

Sinus tachycardia in the setting of an overactive thyroid can sometimes lead to complications, especially if left untreated. The enlarged right ventricle may be a result of the increased workload on the heart due to the tachycardia. It is important to manage both the thyroid condition and the tachycardia to prevent further complications. Medications such as Propranolol can be used to help control the heart rate and symptoms. Regular monitoring by a healthcare provider is essential to ensure proper management of your condition.

I'm really worried about my mom. She's been diagnosed with sepsis cardiomyopathy and CKD stage 3. What kind of treatments should we be looking into, and what does this all mean for her, like how long she might live?

Sepsis needs to be cured with radical antibiotics,if neglected it would lead to MODS,hence visit your Physician and take appropriate management,for CKD she has to undergo Dialysis twice a week atleast.
