Aorta - Echocardiogram
One year back my Echocardiogram showed Dilation of Aortic Root and Ascending Aorta 4.6 cms and asked to do Echo after one year to review the dilatations.
Now after one year I did an Echo from a different doctor, who just gave a report that Aortic Root dilated. Mild PAH
He says ascending aorta diameter can only be seen in CT scan. and dilatation of Ascending Aorta 46mm is age related. Not a major issue.
Is this true?
Kindly advice .

LDL is a little high and Lp(a) is a lot higher. I went to see a cardiologist and he said he can't prescribe me any medicine for high Lp(a) alone. He asked me to do ECG, Ecocardiography and stress test as my blood pressure was normal and i don't have any chest pain. I did some research & found out that there is a medicine called PCSK9 inhibitors that can directly reduce Lp(a) to about 40-50%. Iam looking for a doctor who can give me proper knowledge about Lp(a) and the things I can do reduce Lp(a) directly.
I have a question,
Q) Can regular blood donations reduce Lp(a) levels in blood?
