I'm a bit concerned because I've been feeling some palpitations, breathlessness, and dizziness, even without pushing myself too hard physically. I had an echocardiogram, and it turns out I have mitral valve prolapse with just mild mitral regurgitation. Is it usual to have these symptoms with only mild regurgitation? Also, it's been tough not being active, and I've dropped to an underweight level. To top it off, I've been experiencing erectile dysfunction. Could this be linked to the mitral valve prolapse?

View allI'm really worried because I've been feeling dizzy for a few days now. Since yesterday morning, I've also noticed a slight pain in the upper left side of my chest, and its making me uncomfortable. I'm not sure what's causing this since I have a gastric problem, but it doesn't feel related to that. Who should I reach out to about this? Any advice would be appreciated.

I'm a 27-year-old female and my heart rate seems unusually high, usually over 100, sometimes even reaching 130 beats per minute, even when I'm resting. All my tests, like Spo2, ESR, vitamin levels, thyroid, lipid, and many more have come back normal, including the NT-proBNP. But I just can't shake off this feeling of worry about my heart. The doctors didn't seem to focus much on the heartbeats, though, and asked me to get an MRI spine for my pain. I often experience upper back pain, a heavy feeling in my head, shortness of breath, and sometimes pain in my left breast and shoulder blade. It's less when I'm in bed but gets severe when I'm sitting or working. With my heart rate always on the high side at my age, is this something to be concerned about? Also, why did my doctor order an MRI and not more heart-related tests?
While your symptoms are concerning, its reassuring that you've had normal cardiac markers and blood work, which likely rules out serious heart conditions. However, continued monitoring and further tests will help you get to the root cause.

I'm experiencing some mild pain on the left side of my chest since yesterday, and it seems to occur every few hours. Could this be related to my heart? If it is, what steps should I take next?
Chest pain can have various causes, including heart-related issues. It's important to get evaluated by a healthcare professional to determine the exact cause of your symptoms. In the meantime, you can take a low dose of aspirin (75-100mg) as a precautionary measure. If the pain persists or worsens, seek immediate medical attention.
