Question 1

I'm really worried about my mom's 2D Echo report that mentions Aortic Valve Sclerosis. It also states LV Diastolic Dysfunction, Mild TR, Mild PAH, and Trivial MR AR, but no Intracardiac Masses or pericardial effusion. What caught my eye was the doctor's advice for an angiogram. Is that truly necessary? What kinds of risks are we looking at if we don't go for it? Would appreciate your guidance on whether this is a standard procedure or if alternative approaches exist.

Accepted Answer

yes angiogram is advised .

Question 2

I'm having this weird experience where I feel a pulse in my butt when I'm sitting or lying on the bed. It comes out of nowhere, and once I pay attention to it, the pulse is perfectly in sync with my heart rate. It's like it won't stop as long as I focus on it. I also have high cholesterol and sometimes feel this pulsing in my ankle and the sole of my foot. I'm honestly really confused because some doctors say it's nothing, while others online mention it might be peripheral artery disease. I'm just 21, and the thought of this possibly being something serious is making me super anxious. What should I do?

Accepted Answer

At your age (21) and with a normal heart rate and no other major symptoms, this sensation is very unlikely to be a sign of something dangerous. Its likely related to the circulation in the area. However, its always good to get checked by a healthcare professional for peace of mind. Keep monitoring your cholesterol, and dont hesitate to ask your doctor for more tests if you continue to feel uncertain.

Question 3

I've been having this subtle pain and discomfort around my ribs, and it's really starting to give me anxiety and hypertension. I've already done an ECG, TST, and some blood tests, but everything came back normal. I've seen a couple of doctors, and they mentioned it's probably related to rib pain, but it feels more serious to me. Is there any specific X-ray or test I should be looking into?

Accepted Answer

u can take x ray

Is it normal for my husband's resting heart rate to be 84 bpm? His heartbeat usually rates around 90, and we recently had an ECG done that showed his resting heart rate is 84 bpm. Does this sound okay?

Normal..
