I'm a bit confused about my recent echo reports. The first one mentioned mild MR and MVP, but when I went to another hospital for a second opinion, they only found mild MR, no MVP. What should I do next? Should I be concerned about this discrepancy?

To confirm the presence of mitral valve prolapse (MVP), it is important to have a thorough evaluation by a cardiologist. In the meantime, for mild mitral regurgitation (MR), you can take medication like Losartan 50mg once daily to help manage the condition. It is also important to follow up with your cardiologist for further evaluation and management.

I'm feeling a bit worried because for the past four days, I've been taking Monotrate 10mg and have noticed an irregular heartbeat. It seems to be getting better with the medication, but it's still there. Should I be concerned about this, or is it something that will resolve as I continue with the Monotrate? What should I do next?

I keep waking up with chest pain in the morning. I've already had an ECG, echo, TMT, and chest X-rays, and everything came back normal. I'm currently taking acidity tablets. Sometimes I even feel a pinning sensation in my chest. Do you have any advice on how I can make this pain go away?
