My sister's been dealing with some pain on her left side, like under her armpit and shoulder, for a month. She had an ECG done back then, and it seemed normal. But now, she just got another ECG and it said "borderline abnormal." Should we think about doing another one or maybe see a cardiologist? What do you suggest?

I'm really worried about my mom. She's been having chest pain for a while and thought it might be due to gastric issues, but yesterday it got really bad and lasted more than half an hour. Now she's noticing that when she turns her head to the right, the pain in her chest gets worse. Since yesterday, she's also been feeling some uneasiness in her chest. What could be going on? Should we be worried about something serious?

Is mitral regurgitation something that can be cured? I'm having a really hard time with daily activities because of symptoms like chest pain, feeling like I might faint, lightheadedness, and shortness of breath. What should I do? Can you help me figure this out?
Mitral regurgitation (MR) is a condition where the heart's mitral valve does not close tightly, causing blood to flow backward in the heart. Treatment for MR depends on the severity of the condition. In your case, with symptoms like chest pain, near fainting, lightheadedness, and shortness of breath, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. You may be prescribed medications such as Lisinopril (brand name: Zestril) to help reduce the workload on your heart and manage symptoms. Additionally, you may be advised to take Furosemide (brand name: Lasix) to reduce fluid buildup in your body and relieve symptoms like shortness of breath. In severe cases of MR, surgical intervention may be necessary to repair or replace the mitral valve. However, the treatment plan will be determined based on a thorough evaluation by a healthcare professional. It is crucial to follow their recommendations closely for optimal management of your condition.
