My sister has been feeling sick and weak for months, with chest pain and nausea. It got worse yesterday, so we took her to the hospital. They did an ECG, echo, and chest X-ray. Her echo report shows she has grade 1 diastolic dysfunction. I read this is related to heart failure, but the doctor discharged her, saying everything's fine. Is there something more we should know? Could the doctor be keeping something from us?

View allI'm 21 and I've noticed my blood pressure readings are a bit all over the place. It was 149 over 78 at one point, and then it changed to 109 over 70. My pulse rate also jumps around from 110 to 72. I'm a bit worried and wondering if there's an issue or if this is normal for my age. Can you help me understand what's going on?

I'm 36 years old and my cholesterol levels are quite high. I've got the details here: Total cholesterol is 212 mgdL, triglycerides are 333 mgdL, HDL is 33.60 mgdL, LDL is 143 mgdL, VLDL is 35.4 mgdL, and Non-HDL is 178 mgdL. My liver function tests show bilirubin total at 0.42 mgdL, bilirubin direct at 0.07 mgdL, and bilirubin indirect at 0.35 mgdL. My SGOT is 40 UL, SGPT is 34 UL, GGTP is 28 UL, ALP is 121 UL, total protein is 7.20 gdL, and albumin is 4.48 gdL with an AG ratio of 1.65. My fasting blood sugar is 102 mgdL. The doctor recommended taking Rozavel F 10 mg twice a day, but I'm really concerned and wondering if there's anything else I can do to lower my cholesterol quickly. Any advice or tips would be greatly appreciated.
"Based on your cholesterol levels and liver function test results, I recommend adding Ezetimibe 10 mg once daily to your current treatment with Rozavel F 10 mg twice a day. This combination can help in faster reduction of cholesterol levels. Additionally, you can consider adding Omega-3 fatty acids supplement to further improve your lipid profile. Make sure to follow a healthy diet low in saturated fats and engage in regular physical activity to complement the medication therapy."

Today my mom's been having chest pains, so we got an ECG done. The results mentioned an abnormal R wave progression with early transition. I'm not quite sure what that means or how concerned we should be. Can you explain it to me and let me know if it's anything serious?
yes
