Is there a way to manage mild TR or keep it stable over my lifetime? I'm 30 now and I'm really wondering how I can handle this situation.

For mild tricuspid regurgitation (TR), the focus is usually on managing any underlying conditions that may be causing the TR. In most cases, mild TR does not require specific treatment and can be managed by addressing the underlying cause. It is important to maintain a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise and a balanced diet. In some cases, medications such as diuretics or ACE inhibitors may be prescribed to help manage symptoms or prevent the condition from worsening. However, the specific treatment plan will depend on the underlying cause of the TR and should be determined by a healthcare professional. Regular follow-up with a healthcare provider is important to monitor the condition and make any necessary adjustments to the treatment plan. If you have any concerns or notice any changes in your symptoms, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.

View allI've been dealing with some pain near my heart, left shoulder, and back for the past three years. Theres a mild problem at C5 C6. I've had a bunch of ECGs and they always come back normal. With these results, do you think I still need an ECO or TMT? I'm just trying to figure out what should be my next steps.
From last 3 years, you have been experiencing pain near the heart, left shoulder pain, and back pain. You mentioned there was a mild disc prolapse in C5-C6. Despite undergoing multiple ECGs, they have all been normal. You are now wondering if an ECO (Echocardiogram) or TMT (Treadmill Test) is necessary. Given your symptoms and history of normal ECG results, it would be advisable to undergo an ECO to further evaluate the structure and function of your heart. An ECO can provide more detailed information that may not be captured by an ECG alone, especially in cases of suspected cardiac issues. Additionally, considering your persistent symptoms and the need for a more comprehensive assessment, a TMT may also be beneficial to assess your heart's response to physical activity. For your situation, I would recommend an ECO to assess your heart's structure and function, and a TMT to evaluate your heart's response to exercise. These tests can provide valuable insights into the cause of your symptoms and help guide further management.

I've noticed that my heart rate is usually pretty high, hovering around 90 to 100 beats per minute. Is this something I should be concerned about? What steps can I take to address this, and what kind of treatment would be recommended?
A heart rate of 90 to 100 beats per minute can be considered high, especially at rest. This condition is known as tachycardia. To lower your heart rate, you can try lifestyle changes such as reducing stress, avoiding stimulants like caffeine, and staying hydrated. However, if these measures do not work, medication may be necessary. You can take **Metoprolol** at a dosage of 25-50mg once daily to help lower your heart rate. This medication is a beta-blocker that can effectively reduce heart rate and blood pressure. It is important to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any medication to ensure it is safe and appropriate for you.
