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 a bit worried about my father's health. His INR is 1.90, and I'm wondering how much warfarin he should be taking. Also, after his ECG, when should we schedule an ECG or ECO test? I'd really appreciate your guidance.
Typically, the initial dose of Warfarin is usually 2 to 5 mg per day. However, the dosage may need to be adjusted based on regular INR monitoring. As for when he should do his ECG and ECO after starting Warfarin, it is generally recommended to have these tests done regularly to monitor his heart health and the effects of the medication. It is best to consult his healthcare provider for specific guidance on the timing of these tests based on his individual health needs.

I'm really feeling anxious about my ECG results that came in today. It's showing a low PR interval of 119ms, and I'm not sure if that's something to worry about. The report mentioned Sinus Rhythm and short PR interval. My heart rate is at 90 bpm, P duration 88ms, QRS duration 114ms, QTQTc interval 320393ms. Should I be concerned and start taking medications, or is this in the normal range? Could you explain what these numbers mean? I've attached the ECG photos too.
short PR interval is abnormal.The causes include wolf parkinson white syndrome, acute stress,junctional rhythm,anchanced AV node conduction etc,Patient need not worry , no treatment is required,, It is common in pregnancy and children.
