I'm really concerned about something called "poor R wave progression" in V2, V3, and V4 mentioned in my recent medical test results. I'm not entirely sure what it means. Could it be serious? Should I be taking any special precautions because of it? I've got the reports ready if you'd like to take a look.

When should I consider getting a TMT test? Are there specific signs or symptoms that would mean I need one? I'm a 23-year-old guy and just want to understand when it might be necessary.
A TMT (Treadmill Test) is usually recommended for individuals who have symptoms such as chest pain, shortness of breath, palpitations, or dizziness during physical activity. It is also indicated for individuals with risk factors for heart disease such as a family history of heart disease, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, or smoking history. As a 23-year-old male without any symptoms or risk factors, a TMT may not be necessary at this time. It is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise and a balanced diet, to reduce the risk of heart disease in the future.

I'm really concerned about my current situation. I've had mitral heart disease for 7 years now, and I'm about 6 weeks pregnant. My cardiologist mentioned I might need open heart surgery after delivering. Is it safe for me to proceed with the pregnancy given my heart condition? Also, I'm not clear whether the surgery would be a valve replacement or just a repair. Could you help clarify? My recent echo showed severe mitral regurgitation, among other findings. Just trying to understand what this all means for me and my baby.
