I've been dealing with this chest pain on the right side for about 34 months now. It's not constant but pops up every 10 to 15 days and only lasts for about 5 to 10 seconds. It's starting to make me a bit nervous, and I was wondering if there are any tests you think I should get done?

It is important to investigate the cause of your chest pain. I recommend you to undergo an ECG (Electrocardiogram) to check your heart's electrical activity, and an X-ray or CT scan of the chest to rule out any structural issues. Additionally, a blood test to check for cardiac enzymes and lipid profile may also be beneficial in assessing your heart health.

View allI've had an Acute MI back in January 2019, and they did angioplasty within two days of the attack. Right now, I'm taking Vymada 59, Ecosprin 75, Brilinta 90, Eptus T 2510, Atocor 40, and Seloken XL 50. Everything's been mostly fine, but I do sometimes get breathless, have palpitations, feel dizzy, and even experience less alertness. I'm really curious about a few things: - What's the likelihood that my ejection fraction will increase? - How long can I expect to live with my condition and current treatment? - Are there any known long-term side effects of these medications on other parts of the body, and how can I minimize any negative effects? - My doctor mentioned considering an AICD. Would that help improve my ejection fraction? - What are some potential downsides to getting an AICD?

I'm 36 and I hit the gym regularly. Just had a TMT and it says I have "reversible myocardial ischemia." What exactly does that mean? Should I be worried or thinking about any changes to my workout routine? Would appreciate any insights.

I'm really worried because I was just told I've got a ruptured mitral valve. Is this really serious? What should I be doing to take care of myself with this condition? Would really appreciate some advice on precautions.
Mitral valve rupture is a serious condition that can lead to complications if not managed properly. Some precautions you can take include: 1. Follow your doctor's treatment plan and take medications as prescribed. 2. Avoid strenuous physical activities and get plenty of rest. 3. Monitor your symptoms regularly and report any changes to your healthcare provider. 4. Maintain a healthy diet low in sodium and saturated fats. 5. Avoid smoking and limit alcohol consumption. 6. Stay up to date with regular follow-up appointments with your cardiologist. As for medications, you may be prescribed medications such as Lisinopril (ACE inhibitor) and Furosemide (diuretic) to help manage symptoms and prevent complications.
