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 dealing with Celiac Disease and mild Asthma, and I'm a bit concerned about my recent blood and echo test results. The tests showed that my total cholesterol is at 2212, and there's a mention of mild LVH with Grade 1 LVDD. It got me worried about whether I'm at risk of any heart problems. Could you help me understand these results and what they might mean for my heart health?
Based on your test results, your total cholesterol level is 221 which is slightly elevated. For mild LVH (Left Ventricular Hypertrophy) and Grade 1 LVDD (Left Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction), it is important to manage your conditions to prevent any further complications. For your cholesterol level, you can consider taking a statin medication such as Atorvastatin 20mg once daily to help lower your cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart disease. For mild LVH and LVDD, it is important to follow up with your cardiologist for further evaluation and management. They may recommend medications such as Lisinopril 10mg once daily to help with your heart condition. It is essential to maintain a healthy lifestyle, including a balanced diet, regular exercise, and stress management, to support your overall health and well-being.

I'm 22 years old and I smoke regularly. Lately, I've been experiencing a tight feeling and pain in my chest and back over the past few days. I'm not sure if it's related to my heart, lungs, or maybe something gastric? It gets worse whenever I lift something heavy or if I try to get up quickly from bed. What could be causing this, and should I be concerned?
gastritis take tab pantop 40 mg for 3 days

I'm really concerned about my dad. He had a massive cardiac attack and the doctors told us that all three of his arteries were blocked. They managed to save him by placing a stunt in one of them. I'm just wondering, what do you think would be the best way forward now? Should we consider bypass surgery, or would it be better to place stunts in the other two arteries too? It's a lot to think about, and I just want to make sure we're making the right decision for his health.
In this case, since your dad already had a stent placed in one of the blocked arteries, the most suitable course of action going further would be to assess the condition of the other two blocked arteries. If the blockages are severe and bypass surgery is deemed necessary, then bypass surgery may be recommended. However, if the blockages are suitable for stenting, then placing stents in the other two arteries may be a more suitable option. It is important to consult with your cardiologist to determine the best course of action based on your dad's individual medical condition.
