Do I have aortic sclerosis with mild aortic thickening?

I am 25 year old female ,recently had a echocardiogram . Report was showing everything normal except one finding - Mild thickened aortic ncc . Does it mean I have aortic sclerosis?

1 Answer

Answered on 17th July '24

Mild thickening of the aortic valve is not the same as aortic sclerosis. Sometimes, as people get older, their aortic valves can get a little bit thicker. It’s usually not a big deal and doesn’t cause any symptoms. Make sure to keep following up with a cardiologist so they can keep an eye on it.

Female | 45

If your cholesterol levels are high, it can increase your risk of developing heart disease, stroke, and other health problems. Your cardiologist may advice lifestyle changes, such as eating a healthy diet, and getting regular exercise. They can also recommend medications to help lower your cholesterol levels.

Hi Doc, My name is Bobby Sarraf, i am having headache, high BP, sweating, Breathlessness, pain in top back of left shoulder.

Female | 49

Your symptoms can indicate a high blood pressure that causes headaches, sweating and shortness of breath. The pain in the back of your left shoulder is muscular strain. Yet, one should consider the visit of a doctor maybe cardiologist to uncover any substantial underlying conditions and receive appropriate treatment.

I am married to my second cousin. During my first pregnancy there were no complications nothing. My daughter was born with normal delivery. She was completely alright and normal baby. Completing her every milestone in time. But at 11 month of the age she got ill and the major symptoms were flu and difficulty in breathing thn she was diagnosed with MYOCARDITIS. And died after 1 week and was under treatment in AFIC (Armed Forces Institute Of Cardiology) Rawalpindi. I was pregnant at that time with my second child. My second daughter was born. She was also completely normal covering every milestone in time. She was treated in al shifa hospital throughout each and every test were clear till the 17 months of age. Thn again once in a while she suffered from same symptoms and diagnosed with MYOCARDITIS. She got treated in Al Shifa hospital Islamabad and expired at the age of 17 months.So now i need some expert advise what to do now. I am not getting any satisfactory answer from any doctor in Pakistan some are claiming it as genetics but some are arguing it can't be this because babies show no defects in any of there milestone throughout their life span. So any thing or any help regarding this is highly appreciated.

Myocarditis is a condition where the heart muscle is inflamed and can be caused by viruses, bacteria, or other infections. It is possible that there is a genetic component to this condition, and I would recommend consulting with a genetic specialist or a pediatric cardiologist. They may be able to provide more information about potential genetic causes and what steps can be taken to prevent it in future pregnancies. It is important to seek medical attention and advice from a experienced healthcare professional.

My wife aged 60 is having slow pumping of blood in the left ventricle after taking ecg, echo and angiogram etc. The functioning of the heart is 65%. As per the cardiologist advice she is taking tablets. It may kindly be advised whether the tablets will speed up the functioning of the heart of otherwise any other treatment I have to undergo. Your advice is earnestly solicited. Suggest the treatment and hospitals.

Depending on the cause of the decrease in cardiac functioning, further treatment can be advised.

If heart valve operation is the one that you had in mind, then pay a visit to a qualified cardiologist who is an expert in heart valve surgeries. Medics give you thorough medical instructions and suggest the best treatment options that are fit for your health status.

Bp range is 90 160 is need to consult doctor it's emergency condition or not

Female | 59

A blood pressure reading between 90/60 and 160/100 is usually fine. However, if your BP stays above 160/100, it's important to see a cardiologist. High blood pressure can be dangerous and may lead to serious health issues like heart disease, even without symptoms. Eating healthy and quitting bad habits can help manage hypertension, but it's best to consult a doctor for personalized advice.
