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.

I've been dealing with high triglyceride and cholesterol levels, like 245 and 280. I started taking this med, ROZUCOR 10 mg, which helped, but I ended up with really cold feet, body aches, and some weird neuropathy feelings. My tests like H1bac at 4.9 and BS at 94, and Tsh came back normal. The symptoms eased off once I stopped the meds. Now, I'm wondering if there are other medications I could try for cholesterol that might not give me such side effects?
