I'm really worried about my mom. Her recent reports showed that her heart's LVEF is just 18. Could you suggest ways to increase it? Shes between 18 to 60 years old. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I'm 22 years old and I smoke regularly. Lately, I've been experiencing a tight feeling and pain in my chest and back over the past few days. I'm not sure if it's related to my heart, lungs, or maybe something gastric? It gets worse whenever I lift something heavy or if I try to get up quickly from bed. What could be causing this, and should I be concerned?

I'm really curious and a bit worried about how long someone with RHD can live when they're on penicillin treatment. I started taking Penidure injections when I was just 10 years old and I'm still on them. I was wondering if it's okay to switch to Pentides tablets instead. Also, do people with RHD tend to have a lot of issues after getting married?
RHD patients can survive with treatment with penicillin for a long time, often throughout their lifetime to prevent complications such as rheumatic fever. - The duration of penicillin treatment varies depending on the individual's condition, but it is commonly recommended to be taken continuously to prevent recurrent infections. - Penidure injection is a common form of penicillin used for RHD treatment. As a substitute, Pentides tablets can be taken. The usual dosage of Pentides tablets for RHD treatment is 300 mg once a month. - RHD patients may face complications after marriage if they do not continue with their penicillin prophylaxis, as the risk of recurrent rheumatic fever increases with inadequate treatment. Regular follow-ups with a healthcare provider are important to monitor the condition and adjust treatment as needed.
