I've been having chest pain for the past few months, and sometimes it's on the left side as well. I've noticed it in my left hand too. It kind of comes and goes on its own. Could you suggest what might be going on or what steps I should take?

I've been told I have a skipped heartbeat and trivial Mitral regurgitation, and the echo and Holter tests confirmed the Mitral regurgitation. I'm really curious about what this means for my daily life. How often can I live normally with this condition? Also, how long does it usually take for it to progress from trivial to mild or moderate?

Cardiologist opinion.

I'm feeling really worried because my heart pumping seems weak, yet my heart rate is 72 bpm. I also have this severe mitral valve regurgitation. Is something like this normal, or should I be concerned?

A heart rate of 72bpm is within the normal range. However, with severe mitral valve regurgitation and weak heart pumping, it is important to manage your condition. You can take medications like Carvedilol 6.25mg twice daily to help improve heart function and Metoprolol 25mg twice daily to control heart rate. Additionally, you may benefit from medications like Furosemide 40mg once daily to reduce fluid buildup. Regular follow-up with your cardiologist is essential for monitoring and adjusting your treatment plan.
