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 30 years old and started having chest pain and tingling back in December 2016. I went through all the tests like ECG, 2D echo, and a stress test, and everything came back negative. They told me it's anxiety, so I've been on Depranex and Betacap. Lately, I've been getting this burning sensation that starts from my stomach or chest. It also feels like I'm being pricked on the left side of my chest and back. I'm really not sure what's going on with me, and it's making me worried. Could you give me some advice on what might be happening?
It sounds like you may be experiencing symptoms related to anxiety and possibly acid reflux. The burning sensation starting from the stomach or chest could be due to acid reflux, and the feeling of being pricked on the left side of the chest and back could be related to nerve pain or muscle tension. To address your symptoms, I recommend the following: - Continue taking Depranex for anxiety as prescribed. - For acid reflux and burning sensation, you can try taking Omeprazole (brand name: Prilosec) 20mg once daily before breakfast. - For nerve pain or muscle tension, you can try taking Gabapentin (brand name: Neurontin) 300mg once daily at bedtime. It's important to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management of your symptoms.
