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.

Fluctuating blood pressure readings can be concerning and may be influenced by various factors, including stress, anxiety, diet, and lifestyle habits. It is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and consult with a healthcare professional for proper evaluation and management. In your case, since you are also experiencing anxiety, it is crucial to address both issues.

My doctor told me to get some tests done before my gallstone surgery I have an 8.9mm stone with cholesterolosis. I did an ECG, chest X-ray, and FBS. The X-ray is normal, and FBS is fine too, but my CBC shows slightly high eosinophils. The ECG report says sinus tachycardia with old inferior wall what does that mean? I also have anxiety, so I'm a bit worried about the ECG findings. Can you explain?

I've been having this weird discomfort in my upper left chest for a while now. So, I went to a cardiologist and did all the tests like ECHO, ECG, and TMT, which thankfully came back normal. The doc said it might just be muscular pain, and they also found out I have a Vitamin D3 deficiency, so I'm on tablets for that. Plus, they advised me to lose some weight since I'm considered overweight. But there's something nagging at me from my ECHO report it mentions "trivial tricuspid regurgitation" and "trivial mitral regurgitation." I asked the doctor, and he said it's not a big deal, but I can't help but worry. What do those terms mean, and should I be concerned about it getting worse?

Trivial means minimal which is negligible,no need to worry about ir 8 out 10 people will have such report and its not significant,maintain healthy lifestyle and follow your doctors advice
