I'm really concerned about my mild MVP diagnosis that was confirmed by a cardiologist about 15 months ago. The cardiologist recommended an ECG every year, but I'm worried about what this means for the future, especially considering my age. My last ECG report from December 2014 mentioned mild mitral valve prolapse, but everything else seemed normal, like the other valves and chambers. There wasn't any significant regurgitation, and the ventricular systolic function was normal. Should I be worried about any long-term issues, or is there something specific I should be doing to keep an eye on this?

Question

I was recently told I have mitral valve regurgitation with trivial mitral regurgitation, and I'm really worried about how long it might take for this to get worse, like to a moderate or severe level. Do most people with this condition experience a worsening over time, and how common is it for it to progress? I'm finding it hard to concentrate on anything else because I'm so anxious about it. Can you help clarify this for me?

Question

I'm experiencing this dull pain on the left side of my chest, kind of between the center of my left chest rib and going up towards my left shoulder. It's been happening for about 3 days now, and it gets worse when I lean forward or round my shoulders, but sometimes when I stretch my left shoulder back, it feels a bit better for a while. I dont think its acidity because I dont have issues with that, and Ive never had high blood pressure or heart problems. What could be causing this pain?

Question

My mom has heart, diabetes, and thyroid conditions, and she was recently diagnosed with tuberculosis. Today, she suddenly had an acidity issue, and I gave her Eno. I'm really worried and just wanted to check if it's safe to give Eno to someone with a heart condition.
