Question

I'm looking at my ECG report, and it mentions "ST-segment elevation anterior borderline." I'm not really sure what that means. Should I be worried about this? Can you explain what's going on?

The ECG report showing ST-segment elevation (anterior) indicates a potential issue with the heart's blood supply. This could be a sign of a heart attack or other cardiac problem. It is important to seek medical attention immediately for further evaluation and treatment. In such cases, medications like aspirin, nitroglycerin, and clopidogrel may be prescribed to help improve blood flow to the heart.

Question

I'm really concerned about my current situation. I've had mitral heart disease for 7 years now, and I'm about 6 weeks pregnant. My cardiologist mentioned I might need open heart surgery after delivering. Is it safe for me to proceed with the pregnancy given my heart condition? Also, I'm not clear whether the surgery would be a valve replacement or just a repair. Could you help clarify? My recent echo showed severe mitral regurgitation, among other findings. Just trying to understand what this all means for me and my baby.

Question

Should I start taking any specific meds or consider certain treatments? I'd really appreciate some advice on what steps I should take next. Thanks for shedding some light on this!

Question

I'm feeling like there's something stuck in my throat. I've got this chest pain right in the middle, and it feels tight. I even feel like I'm suffocating and like I can't breathe properly, like something bad might happen. Why could this be happening?
