Detailed Answer:

Hello!

Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM!

Regarding your concern, I would like to explain that you uploaded section of the echocardiography report doesn't denote any serious abnormalities.

It is referred that overall cardiac structure (both atria; ventricles; aortic, mitral, tricuspid valves; aorta, pericardium) is normal.

The only deviation observed is an impaired left ventricular relaxation, which is the mildest form of ventricular filling pattern alteration.

But, it doesn't imply that you are suffering from any specific cardiac disorder (cardiomyopathy).

This pattern may be commonly seen in hypertensive individuals, if the echo exam is not performed under optimal loading conditions, or in person with longstanding and uncontrolled hypertension.

A more detailed opinion would be drawn if you could upload also the metric data section (the section detailing specific dimensions and parameters), thought the conclusions do not reveal any ventricular chamber dilation or LV wall hypertrophy.

Please could you upload the entire echo report for a direct review?

Also what are your actual or recent complains, including the reason(s) for checking your cardiac status (echo and other cardiac tests?

At the end, I would conclude that your cardiac echo shows nothing problematic, serious or life-threatening.

So relax!

Don't worry about!

Just find the way to provide me with the required information, in order to be possible for me giving a more practical professional opinion.

I remain at your disposal for further discussions.

Kind regards,

Dr. Iliri

I had the echo for uncontrolled HTN, SOB, CP.
Here is the rest of the report. My cardio said the heart was thick and stiff but when i read the report i didnt see that, however I am not a doctor and can't read echos, just wanted a second opinion. I also had a nuclear stress test: Normal , CTA renal : Normal

Detailed Answer:
Hi again,

After reviewing your entire echo report, I could say for sure that your heart walls are not thicker than the other normal individuals (IVSd 1.1 cm; LVPWd 1.1 cm).

So relax!

You have not any cardiomyopathy.

Your heart is structurally normal.

The only advice I could give is to look after you BP values, to follow an appropriate underlying management strategy (medications, a healthy life-style and diet, avoid smoking contacts, engage yourself in more recreational physical activities, etc).

If you have further uncertainties, feel free to ask me.

Greetings!

Dr. Iliri
