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?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
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.

View allI've been having these heart palpitations lately, like a fluttering feeling in my chest, and my local cardiologist said I should take met XL 25. I've done all the tests like ECG, Echo, and TMT and everything came out normal, but I'm really nervous about starting this medication. Can you tell me if it's okay to take and what side effects I should watch out for? I'm just really not sure about it.

My mom, who's 50, has been taking Thyronorm 50 for her thyroid. Her doctor mentioned noticing some changes in her ECG twice during her follow-ups and suggested she should get a TMT and an Echo done. Her 2D Echo looks normal with an LVEF of 65%, but her TMT came back positive for inducible ischemia at a moderate workload level. She's mentioned having shortness of breath sometimes when she's climbing stairs, but other than that, she's fine and doesn't have any chest pain or a history of high blood pressure or diabetes. What would you suggest as the next steps for her?
A 2D Echo is advised as a diagnostic procedure for heart blocks and other pathology..

I've been fasting for the past few days for Ramadan and I'm 30 years old. I'm a bit concerned because I've been experiencing this slight pain in my left chest whenever I take a deep breath. Could this be related to fasting, like maybe from not eating for 12 hours? Is there something specific I should be worried about, and should I be taking any medication for it?
