My dad recently mentioned having a mild chest pain and we found out he has grade 1 diastolic dysfunction. All his other tests came back normal. Should we be worried about this? I've attached his report here. Any advice would be really appreciated.

I'm thinking about marrying a girl who's had heart valve surgery. She's 27 and on meds her cardiologist says she'll need forever. I'm worried about what this means for us, especially if we want to have kids. Could her medication cause any side effects or issues with pregnancy? And what should we expect for her health and our life together?

I'm really concerned about my health right now. My ECG showed sinus arrhythmia, but my other tests like the 2D echo and blood work came back normal. I have some heart blocks, but I've been trying to manage them with diet control. The issue is, I feel breathless whenever I walk, even though I don't have any other symptoms. Could you give me some advice on what steps I should take next?

Sinus arrhythmia is a common condition where the heart's rhythm varies with breathing. Since your 2D echo and blood tests are normal, it's a good sign. For managing heart blocks and breathlessness, you can take a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol (25-50mg) once daily. This will help in controlling your heart rate and symptoms. Additionally, continue with your diet control and regular exercise routine. If breathlessness persists, you can use a bronchodilator like Salbutamol inhaler as needed.
