I'm really concerned about my 6-month-old daughter who has a 4 mm perimembranous VSD. Is there a chance that this VSD will close on its own, or should I be worried about any complications?

Ive noticed that my heart rate is really highlike around 96 to 108 when Im just sitting, and it shoots up to 110 to 120 once I start walking. I did have COVID about 10 months ago and got my ECG and echo tests done three months back, which came out normal. I also checked my cholesterol and thyroid levels, and they were fine. Should I be concerned about my heart rate, or is this something that will go back to normal over time?

Since your ECG and echo were normal 3 months back, it is less likely to be a serious issue. However, it is important to monitor your heart rate regularly and follow up with your healthcare provider. In the meantime, you can try taking a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol at a low dose of 25mg once daily to help control your heart rate. Make sure to consult with your doctor before starting any new medication.

My dad had a minor heart attack on November 7th, and he had a bypass operation back in 2008 in the UK. I'm really worriedis this something we should be super concerned about given his history? What can we do to prevent this from getting worse?

Since he had a minor heart attack, it's important for him to follow the doctor's recommendations for recovery. In addition to any prescribed medications, it's crucial for him to make lifestyle changes such as eating a healthy diet, exercising regularly, and avoiding smoking. Given his history of heart issues, he may be prescribed medications such as aspirin to prevent blood clots, a beta-blocker like Metoprolol to reduce strain on the heart, and a statin like Atorvastatin to lower cholesterol levels. It's important for him to take these medications as directed by his doctor to help prevent future heart issues.
