I'm really concerned because for the last three months, my heart has been skipping beats every half an hour or so. My blood pressure is recorded at 14090. I've seen a cardiologist and had tests like an echo, ECG, and holter done. My doctor has put me on Olmesar 20 for my blood pressure and Ciplar LA 20 mg for 15 days. I'm really worried about the trivial mitral regurgitation and these skipped heartbeats. What should I be expecting or doing about this?

Trivial mitral regurgitation is a common condition where a small amount of blood flows backward through the mitral valve with each heartbeat. It usually does not cause any symptoms or require treatment. As for your skipped heartbeats, also known as palpitations, they can be caused by various factors such as stress, caffeine, or certain medications. Your doctor has prescribed Olmesar 20 for your blood pressure and Ciplar LA 20 mg for 15 days to help with your heart rate. Olmesar is a brand name for Olmesartan, which helps lower blood pressure. Ciplar LA is a brand name for Propranolol, which can help regulate your heart rate. It is important to take these medications as prescribed and follow up with your cardiologist for further evaluation and management. If you continue to experience skipped heartbeats or have any concerns, make sure to inform your doctor for further guidance.

View allMy mom recently had a TMT test, and it showed a mild positive for inducible ischemia. The thing is, she didnt feel any pain or discomfort during the test. The doctor suggested we should go for an angiogram, but she's planning to go abroad for six months. Is it okay if we wait and do the angio after she comes back? Should we be concerned about waiting that long?
It is important to follow your doctor's advice regarding the timing of the angiogram. However, in cases of mild positive inducible ischemia without symptoms, it may be possible to wait for 6 months before undergoing the angiogram. It is important to monitor your mother's symptoms and follow up with her doctor regularly during this time. If any new symptoms develop or if there are any changes in her health status, it is important to consult with her doctor earlier.

I've been noticing a few things and I'm a bit concerned. Breathing is fine and I don't have any throat pain, but I've been experiencing some chest pain and occasionally my leg hurts. Sometimes there's mucus too. I haven't been exercising for the last month and have mostly been staying at home. Could this be related to my lack of activity, or should I be worried about something else?
