I'm 20 and recently had two echocardiograms, one showing RVSP at 37 mmHg and the other at 29 mmHg. Both mentioned normal pulmonary artery and veins, and there's MVP with mild eccentric regurgitation. I'm worried about the possibility of pulmonary artery hypertension and whether it could be idiopathic. Could you help me understand what's going on?

I've been having these palpitations for a while now, and lately, my hands start shaking with each heartbeat. If I rest something like a pen on my chest, it moves up and down. Plus, there's this visible pulsation, but I can't really pinpoint exactly where it's happening in my chest or abdomen. What could this mean?

It sounds like you may be experiencing palpitations along with visible pulsations. This can be concerning and may require further evaluation. One possible medication that can help with palpitations is Metoprolol (brand name: Lopressor). The usual dosage for palpitations is 25-100mg twice daily. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional for proper evaluation and management of your symptoms.

I'm a bit concerned about the results from my recent cardiac reports. Everything came back normal except the echocardiography, which indicated a mild mitral prolapse. Should I be worried about this?

Mild mitral valve prolapse is usually not a cause for concern and often does not require treatment. It is important to follow up with your doctor for regular check-ups to monitor your heart health. If you experience symptoms such as chest pain, palpitations, or shortness of breath, you should consult your doctor. No specific medication is required for mild mitral valve prolapse.
