I've been feeling really worn out and having a hard time sleeping because of my breathing troubles. I recently found out my ejection fraction is at 40. I'm super worried about it and want to know what I can do to feel better and improve my situation. Any advice on how to handle this?

View allMy dad is 62 and has been having some real trouble with his breathing. After seeing a doctor, the breathing got a bit better, but he's still coughing a lot. A month later, something strange happenedhe was in bed and suddenly gas was coming out of his mouth, and he had chest pain at the same time. After using the toilet, he felt a little better. Now he's in a hospital in Siliguri, and the doctors there say his heart is a bit weak. I'm thinking about consulting with doctors in South India, but I'm a bit lost on where to go. I heard CMC Vellore has long wait times, and Apollo Chennai is a bit too pricey for us. Can you help suggest the best hospital and doctor in the south for his situation?

I've recently had an angioplasty to clear a blockage in my main valve. It's been three days now, and I've started feeling some pain in my left shoulder after sitting for a few hours. I haven't been lifting any heavy objects or anything like that. Is this something related to my heart? Should I be worried? Please let me know what's going on.
Just with a complaint of shoulder pain we cant rule out heart related issues visit your physician for evaluation

I'm a bit confused about my recent echo reports. The first one mentioned mild MR and MVP, but when I went to another hospital for a second opinion, they only found mild MR, no MVP. What should I do next? Should I be concerned about this discrepancy?
To confirm the presence of mitral valve prolapse (MVP), it is important to have a thorough evaluation by a cardiologist. In the meantime, for mild mitral regurgitation (MR), you can take medication like Losartan 50mg once daily to help manage the condition. It is also important to follow up with your cardiologist for further evaluation and management.
