I'm trying to understand the normal range for Right Ventricle and Left Ventricle EDD mid-cavity. Can you also tell me what the normal range for ejection fraction is? I'm really curious and a bit worried about this, so any insights would be super helpful.

The normal range for Right Ventricle EDD mid cavity is 2.0-3.5 cm, and for Left Ventricle EDD mid cavity is 3.0-5.6 cm. The normal range for ejection fraction is typically between 50-70%.

View allMy dad had angioplasty surgery 5 years back and has been doing fine with normal reports, but his doctor keeps adding new tablets every visit without changing the old ones. The clinic is also quite far, so we're thinking of switching doctors is it okay to make that change?

I'm looking over my cholesterol results and I'm trying to figure out what they mean. My total cholesterol is 198mg, triglycerides are at 236mg, HDL cholesterol is 40mg, non-HDL cholesterol is 158mg, and my LDL cholesterol is 130mg. Plus, the atherosclerosis index is 5. Does this report look alright, or is there something off? If there's a problem, should I be thinking about medication?
Based on these values, your cholesterol levels are not optimal. To improve your cholesterol levels, you can make lifestyle changes such as adopting a healthy diet, exercising regularly, and avoiding smoking. If lifestyle changes alone are not sufficient, medication may be prescribed by a healthcare provider. In your case, considering your lipid profile, a statin medication such as Atorvastatin (Lipitor) may be recommended. The usual starting dose for Atorvastatin is 10-20mg once daily. However, the specific medication and dosage should be determined by a healthcare provider after a thorough evaluation.

I'm feeling a bit worried because I've been experiencing chest pain again. A few months ago, I had a TMT and it was negative, and my echo was normal. I don't have a history of any major diseases and I dont smoke or drink alcohol. But today, the pain came back, and I've been having some breathlessness because of my asthma. Could the asthma be causing this chest pain or should I be concerned about something else?
Given that your TMT and echo were normal three months ago, and you have a history of asthma, your chest pain and breathlessness might be related to asthma exacerbation rather than a cardiac issue. Asthma can cause chest tightness and breathlessness, especially during physical activity. It is important to manage your asthma effectively with your prescribed medications and follow your asthma action plan. If the chest pain persists or worsens, consult your healthcare provider to rule out any other potential causes and ensure your asthma is well-controlled.
