I'm 25 and just got my 2D echo mvp report. It says mvp grade I trivial MR and normal LV function. Should I be concerned about anything here? What exactly does this mean for my heart health, and do I need to take any action or follow-ups?

Your 2D echo report shows Mitral Valve Prolapse (MVP) with trivial Mitral Regurgitation (MR) and normal Left Ventricular (LV) function. Since you are 25 years old, it is important to monitor this condition regularly. You can take Tab Metoprolol 25mg once daily to help manage symptoms and prevent complications associated with MVP.

Can arrhythmia be cured?

While medications are used to control abnormal heart rhythms, ablation procedures can cure some types of arrhythmia completely. Once treated, whether through ablation or ongoing medications, most patients with a heart rhythm issue can return to their normal activity levels.

My dad just turned 50 and he's in good health overall. His recent routine stress test showed a positive result, which has us concerned. He was also found to have a Vitamin D deficiency, with a level of 9.8. Could this deficiency be linked to the stress test results? Should we be worried about one affecting the other?

Vitamin D deficiency can impact cardiovascular health and may affect the results of a stress test. It is important to address the Vitamin D deficiency to improve overall health. Your father can take Vitamin D supplements such as "Calcirol" 60,000 IU once a week for 8 weeks followed by maintenance dose of 1000-2000 IU daily. Additionally, he should spend time in sunlight and consume foods rich in Vitamin D like fatty fish, egg yolks, and fortified dairy products. Regular follow-up with his healthcare provider is recommended to monitor his Vitamin D levels and cardiovascular health.

I'm really worried about my heart health. I had an echocardiogram about 7 months ago, and it showed a 60% ejection fraction with trace mitral regurgitation and aortic regurgitation. I've been asking my doctor for another echo for weeks, but he's not keen on it, saying the heart structure won't change that quickly. I'm experiencing what I think are classic heart failure symptoms thoughevery heartbeat feels weak and faint, like my heart's struggling to pump blood. When I stand up, I get short of breath, and my heart rate shoots up. Should I keep pushing for a repeat echo? Is it possible for my heart to get worse in less than a year?

ECHO is done atleast every 6-12 months.
