I've been feeling a bit restless and having some pressure in my chest. The doctor ran some tests including an ECG and a 2D Echo. Most things came back normal, but it showed diastolic dysfunction grade 1. Should I be concerned about this, and what does it even mean for my health?

View allIs it a big deal that my TMT showed significant ST depression of 0.1mm in leads V4-V6 at peak exercise but didn't persist in recovery? The test said mildly positive for RMI, and I reached my target heart rate. I did Bruce stage 3 for about 8.09 minutes. My blood pressure is normal resting at 12080 and after exercise, it was 14080. I'm not diabetic. My METs were 10.2. Should I be worried about this? Could it be treated at this stage? Do I need to go for an angiography, and if I do, how soon should it be done?

I'm 29 and just had some tests done, including an ECG, ECHO, and TMT, and the results came back normal, but there was a note in my ECHO report about "LV diastolic dysfunction grade 2." My cardiologist said it's normal and nothing to worry about, but I'm still a bit concerned. I don't smoke or drink and I'm not overweight. I did some Googling and found different explanations about that note, which is making me a bit anxious. I also didn't sleep well only about 4 hours the night before the tests and wore double masks during them. Could any of that have impacted the results? Just want to make sure there's nothing I should be concerned about.
"Based on your description, it seems like you are concerned about the comment in your ECHO report regarding LV diastolic dysfunction grade 2. Your cardiologist has reassured you that it is normal and nothing to worry about, which is a good sign. LV diastolic dysfunction grade 2 indicates some stiffness in the left ventricle of your heart during the relaxation phase, but it is a common finding and may not necessarily indicate any serious issues. Considering your age, lifestyle habits, and the fact that all your other tests (ECG, TMT) are normal, there is likely no cause for concern. Factors such as inadequate sleep and wearing double masks during the tests could have influenced the results slightly. To further support your heart health, you can focus on maintaining a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise and a balanced diet. If you have any specific symptoms or concerns in the future, do not hesitate to follow up with your cardiologist for further evaluation. No specific medication is required for LV diastolic dysfunction grade 2 at this stage. Just continue with your healthy habits and follow up with your cardiologist as recommended for routine check-ups."

Lately, my blood pressure seems to be higher than what's considered normal, at 12080. I found this out during my annual medical check-up, and now I can't stop worrying about it. Any advice on how I can manage this or stop overthinking about my BP?
