HRCT and ECHO
I had my HRCT chest with Coronary Angiography which came normal and have 2D echo today after today's episode of Lightheadedness and rapid heartbeat which shows mild PAH. Is it worrisome? Cardiologist didn't pay much heed on it though.

RVSP of 31 translates into normal pulmonary artery pressures
You don't need to worry at all
PAH leads to shortness of breath on exertion
If you don't have it You should be relaxed
Just do an Echo yearly for few years
Consult a pulmonologist in your vicinity for evaluation of HRCT changes
