Hello doctor,
My 65 year old father has a heart problem. I am attaching his medical reports with this message.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I have gone through your dad's results (attachment removed to protect patient identity).
- The echo investigation indicated an evidence of diastolic dysfunction. This can be caused by cardiomyopathy, or in aged patients with diabetes or hypertension, etc.
- I generally recommend a treatment only if the patient is symptomatic. In the case of symptoms, beta blockers are what I first prescribe with an ACE inhibitor (angiotensin converting enzyme).
I suggest you discuss this option with his specialist. I wish him a quick recovery.

Hello doctor,
Thank you for the quick response. I had a discussion with his cardiologist. The details of the discussion are attached. Please check whether it is in order.
Hello,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
I have gone through the cardiologist's prescription (attachment removed to protect patient identity).
- I suggest you continue with all the medications as prescribed by him.
- His recovery will take time as this is a chronic disease. Also, he should reduce his salt intake.
Best regards.
