I've recently had an echo done, and it showed grade 1 diastolic dysfunction. I'm a bit concerned and wondering if this is something serious. Should I see a cardiologist about it, or is it a common finding that's usually not a big deal?

It is important to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management. Treatment may include lifestyle modifications and medications such as ACE inhibitors like Enalapril (5-20mg once daily) or ARBs like Losartan (25-100mg once daily) to help improve heart function and symptoms. Regular follow-up with a cardiologist is recommended to monitor your condition.

I'm experiencing something concerning and hoping for some guidance. Every morning when I wake up, or even when I'm just lying in bed, my whole body starts to vibrate. It's like I can feel my heart beating really fast, almost like a hammer inside me. This is pretty unsettling. Any idea what's happening or what steps I should take?

My husband's triglyceride level is pretty high at 515, so I'm a bit worried about what he can eat. I'm wondering if mangoes are okay for him. He's taking Stator F every night after dinner. Does that affect what fruits or foods he should avoid?

High triglycerides are a significant risk factor for cardiovascular disease, and managing diet is crucial in controlling these levels. While mangoes are nutritious, they are also high in natural sugars, which could potentially raise triglyceride levels if consumed in large quantities. Your husband can still enjoy mangoes, but it is important to do so in moderation and as part of a balanced diet that is low in refined sugars and unhealthy fats. Since he is taking Stator-F (a combination of statin and fenofibrate) to manage his triglycerides, it is essential to follow dietary recommendations from his healthcare provider. If you're unsure about how much mango is appropriate, it would be best to consult with his doctor or a registered dietitian who can provide personalized advice.
