I'm feeling this weird heaviness in my chest, and I don't really have any other symptoms, but my heart's racing and I can actually hear it beating really fast. Could you help me figure out what's going on? I'm just really nervous about it.

View allI've been dealing with heart anxiety since 2011 and had a bunch of tests done back in 2015. Everything seemed normal then but recently, I got an echo done in August that showed mild MRTR grade 1 DD. I also did some ECGs and they showed issues likely because of a fast heart rate or tachycardia. The doctor suggested a stress echo and I went through that last week. Could you take a look at the report? I'm a bit worried because my tests were normal in 2015 and now there's something going on. What do you think?
You have a history of heart anxiety since 2011 and have undergone multiple tests, including an echo in August which showed mild mitral regurgitationtricuspid regurgitation grade 1 and grade 1 diastolic dysfunction. After experiencing issues with fast heart rate tachycardia on recent ECGs, your doctor suggested a stress echo which you have completed. It would be helpful to review the report to provide a more accurate recommendation. Please provide the details of the stress echo report for further evaluation.

I'm dealing with shortness of breath whenever I lift something heavy or climb stairs. A doctor mentioned heart valve replacement before. I'm curious about how serious this could be and what steps I might need to take. Could this really be related to the heart valve issue, or might there be something else going on? Would replacement be the only option?
Shortness of breath during physical activity can be a sign of heart valve problems. In your case, it may be necessary to consider a heart valve replacement surgery. One common medication prescribed for such conditions is Metoprolol (brand name: Lopressor) at a dosage of 25-100mg per day. However, the specific treatment plan should be discussed with your healthcare provider after a thorough evaluation of your condition.

I'm a bit concerned about my dadhe's got a history of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. His reports show no blockage and his echo report is normal, but his blood tests indicate an iron and magnesium deficiency. We've started him on Orofer XT for the iron since his Hb level is 10.3 because of low ferritin. I've seen some folks online saying that magnesium citrate 1000 mg per day and L-Taurine have helped reduce their Afib episodes. Is it okay for my dad to take these supplements too, and if so, for how long should he be on them? Also, he's currently taking Cordarone (Amiodarone), Prolomet 25, and Xarelto 15. We're wondering if he could switch from Amiodarone to Flecanide (Flecarite 50) since we've heard Cordarone can be quite toxic compared to other meds. Would love to hear your thoughts on this.
Q1. Can my father take magnesium citrate and L-Taurine supplements to help reduce Afib episodes? If yes, for how long? Yes, your father can take magnesium citrate and L-Taurine supplements to help reduce Afib episodes. He can take magnesium citrate 1000 mg per day and L-Taurine supplements as reported by other patients. It is recommended to continue taking these supplements as long as they are providing benefit in reducing Afib episodes. Q2. Can my father switch from Cordarone (amiodarone) to FlecanideFlecarite 50, since Cordarone is very toxic compared to other medicines? Yes, your father can consider switching from Cordarone (amiodarone) to FlecanideFlecarite 50 as an alternative treatment for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. It is important to consult with your father's healthcare provider to discuss the potential benefits and risks of switching medications. The healthcare provider can provide guidance on the appropriate dosage and duration of treatment with FlecanideFlecarite 50 based on your father's individual health condition.
