Fluctuating PAH values

2023-06-13 14:44:49
I have had 2D Echo few times in past 2 years and readings of PAH were always fluctuating but recently in may report says Mild PAH. Oct 2021 33mm hg September 2022 25 mm hg Jan 2023 18 mm hg May 2023 31 mm hg ( this time it is written as mildPAH) Until now I didn't have any symptoms but from yesterday I am feeling on and off breathless even though my oxygen levels are 98-99. 2 days back I have episodes of sinus tachycardia. Is my PAH deteriorating?
