Its common to experience pain and discomfort in the arm after an angioplasty, especially if the procedure was done through the arm. I recommend following up with your doctor to ensure there are no complications. In the meantime, gentle stretching and using a warm compress might help ease the pain.

I'm a bit worried because for the past two days, I've been having some breathing discomfort, but it's not constant. It mostly happens after I've eaten in the afternoon and at night. I'm also experiencing some pain in my shoulder. I just started Zumba exercises, and it seems like this all started the day after. Do you think there's a connection? What's going on with my breathing and shoulder?

I'm trying to understand more about my recent test results. It mentioned something like mild mitral stenosis with trivial regurgitation and that my left atrium is dilated. Plus, there's something about the anterior leaflet of the mitral valve being mildly thickened, and the mitral orifice measuring 2.22 square centimeters. They also noted trivial mitral regurgitation with Doppler. What does all this mean for my heart health? Should I be worried? Any advice on what steps I should take next would be really helpful.
