I'm really worried because I've heard that heart attack symptoms in women can be different from what men experience. Can you explain what signs I should be looking out for? And how can I tell if chest pain is from a heart attack or just something else? Its been on my mind lately, and I'd love some clarity.

I'm really concerned about my mild MVP diagnosis that was confirmed by a cardiologist about 15 months ago. The cardiologist recommended an ECG every year, but I'm worried about what this means for the future, especially considering my age. My last ECG report from December 2014 mentioned mild mitral valve prolapse, but everything else seemed normal, like the other valves and chambers. There wasn't any significant regurgitation, and the ventricular systolic function was normal. Should I be worried about any long-term issues, or is there something specific I should be doing to keep an eye on this?

I'm really concerned about my mom because she's been taking Telmisartan 40 for over a year now. I've noticed she's been feeling fatigued and dizzy, and I'm worried these might be side effects from the medicine. Her blood pressure readings have been normal for a while, so I'm just wondering if it's safe for her to stop taking it?

abruptly discontinuing the medication can lead to rebound hypertension; if her blood pressure remains normal, her doctor may consider gradually tapering off the medication or switching to a different treatment, but it's essential to weigh the potential benefits of stopping the medication against the risks of uncontrolled hypertension.
