I'm trying to understand my recent test results. I have Atrial Fib, and although my last stress test didn't show any blockage, there was something like a shadow at the bottom of my heart. What could this shadow mean?

View allI'm 32 years old and recently found out from my echo scan that I have grade 1 diastolic dysfunction. I'm trying to understand what exactly grade 1 diastolic dysfunction means and what might have caused it. Should I be really worried about this? Could it lead to a heart attack or other heart disease down the road? My blood pressure is 13584 and my pulse is 93. I'm feeling pretty anxious about what all this could mean. Can you help clarify this for me? I've also attached my echo report for reference.
grade 1 diastolic dysfunction normal..salt restricted diet ,dash diet and regular aerobic exercises is advised to the patient.

I've been dealing with headaches last week that lasted for two days, and my BP was at 240160. I got an MRIMRA done, and luckily everything was normal. Started taking Cilacar 10mg once a day, and from the next day, my BP seemed under control. But today, it suddenly spiked to 180120 this evening. I can only get in to see a doctor tomorrow. Should I consider taking half of the Cilacar 10mg now to help lower it?
As an emergency medicine you can take half tablet and visit Your doctor as soon as possible
