View allI've been experiencing some chest tightness on and off for the past 1.5 years. It'll usually happen and last for about 2 minutes, making it hard to breathe or move my upper body. Recently, I woke up in the middle of the night to get some water and felt the same tightness with a slight pain in my chest and heart. I went to a cardiologist and had an ECG and a 2D echo test, but they both came back normal. The doctor advised me to rest, and I did, but the chest tightness keeps happening. Why is this still going on? Could there be another cause, and should I see someone else for this? Any ideas on what might be causing it?

I'm taking Inderal LA propranolol, but now I'm experiencing chest pain again, I've got swelling in my foot, and I'm having some breathing problems. Should I be concerned about these symptoms? What could be causing them?
It is important to seek medical attention immediately as these symptoms could indicate a serious reaction to the medication. The dosage of Inderal LA should be reviewed by your healthcare provider to ensure it is appropriate for you.

I've been diagnosed with mitral valve prolapse and mild mitral regurgitation. Lately, I've been hearing this strange sound or feeling a vibration from my heart every now and then. It seems to go away after a while, but it's a bit worrying. I did another echo, and it still shows mild regurgitation. Could this sound or vibration mean my mitral regurgitation is getting worse? I've also been dealing with gastric issues. I'm only 22 years old, and I'm trying to figure out if these things are related or if I should be concerned about it. Could you help me understand what's going on?
