What does it mean if I have grade 1 diastolic dysfunction? Is it something I should be worried about? I just had an echo done and this came up in my report.

Question

I'm experiencing this dull pain on the left side of my chest, kind of between the center of my left chest rib and going up towards my left shoulder. It's been happening for about 3 days now, and it gets worse when I lean forward or round my shoulders, but sometimes when I stretch my left shoulder back, it feels a bit better for a while. I dont think its acidity because I dont have issues with that, and Ive never had high blood pressure or heart problems. What could be causing this pain?

Question

I've been dealing with high blood pressure around 175110 and usually manage it with Amlopress AT, but lately, Ive had to take Calcigard 5mg and Lasix 40mg to try and control it. It seems to help for a bit, but then my pressure goes right back up after a few hours. What could be causing this, and is there something else I should be doing or considering? My pulse is around 63 if thats important.

Question

I've been experiencing this pinching pain in my heart area, and I'm really worried about it. Someone mentioned it could be musculoskeletal pain or maybe gastritis. Can you help me understand what musculoskeletal pain actually is and how it might relate to what's going on with me?
