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?

View allI've been having this chest pain right in the center for the past 3 years, mostly when I'm exerting myself like lifting heavy stuff, climbing stairs, or riding in a fast-moving vehicle. I've had a coronary angiogram, and it came back normal. My echo is also normal. I've noticed my stomach bloats when this happens. Could this be related to a heart issue or is it more of an anxiety thing? The pain usually goes away when I rest. What could be going on?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), which can sometimes present with chest pain and bloating. I recommend trying over-the-counter antacids like Tums or Rolaids for relief of your symptoms. Additionally, you can try lifestyle modifications such as avoiding trigger foods (spicy, acidic, fatty foods), eating smaller meals, and not lying down right after eating. If your symptoms persist, you may need to see a gastroenterologist for further evaluation and management.

My dad is 62 and has been having some real trouble with his breathing. After seeing a doctor, the breathing got a bit better, but he's still coughing a lot. A month later, something strange happenedhe was in bed and suddenly gas was coming out of his mouth, and he had chest pain at the same time. After using the toilet, he felt a little better. Now he's in a hospital in Siliguri, and the doctors there say his heart is a bit weak. I'm thinking about consulting with doctors in South India, but I'm a bit lost on where to go. I heard CMC Vellore has long wait times, and Apollo Chennai is a bit too pricey for us. Can you help suggest the best hospital and doctor in the south for his situation?

I'm really concerned because my friend just had angiography and then angioplasty three days later. Now, due to complications, another angiography and possibly angioplasty are needed just three weeks after the first. Are there any risks with having these procedures so frequently?
Frequent angiography and angioplasty procedures can carry certain risks, such as increased chances of bleeding, infection, damage to blood vessels, and allergic reactions to contrast dye. Additionally, there is a risk of developing blood clots at the site of the procedure. To help reduce these risks, your friend's healthcare provider may prescribe medications such as Aspirin and Clopidogrel to prevent blood clots, as well as medications like Atorvastatin to manage cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of further complications. It is important for your friend to follow the prescribed medication regimen and attend all follow-up appointments to monitor for any potential complications.
