I found out I have mitral valve prolapseAML in February, and I'm wondering if homeopathy can completely treat it. I also tend to get anxious pretty often. Could you tell me if homeopathy might help with that too?

View allMy daughter is 40 days old and was diagnosed with a single large VSD leading to a single ventricle, severe PAH, and normally related great arteries. The pulmonary artery is dilated from the right side of the ventricle and unrestricted, with mild AR and moderate left AVVR plus mild right AVVR. The doctor said it's very complex and critical, recommending multistage palliation. Are there any alternative surgeries instead of multiple operations? It's so overwhelming to think about her going through so many procedures.
It is understandable that you are overwhelmed by the prospect of multiple surgeries for your 40-day-old daughter. While the situation is complex and requires multistage palliation, there may be some alternative approaches to consider, such as interventional catheterization for certain aspects of her condition. However, the final decision should be made in consultation with her cardiologist and cardiac surgeon, taking into account the specifics of her anatomy and physiology.

I'm really worried about my 15-day-old baby's diagnosis of a hole in the heart, specifically VSD. It's strange that no scan picked it up earlier. The doctor mentioned waiting a couple of months, and if it doesn't close on its own, we might have to consider surgery. I'm really anxious about the future and the potential complications from surgery. Is there any alternative to surgery we should be considering? I'm looking for some guidance here.
The advice is appropriate.As per the echo the location of this defect usually does not close by itself. However the size of defect is not considerable...we have to wait for a few months or years...keep reviewing symptoms and repeat echo and then decide about need and timing of surgery. Even surgery if needed in present times the outcomes are very good.So don't worry from now. For further clarification

My son's heart rate was 160 on June 21, 2017 should we be worried? What are the options for surgery or controlling a high heart rate?
A heart rate of 160 beats per minute (bpm) on June 21, 2017, for your son could be a cause for concern, as it's significantly higher than a normal resting heart rate for a child of that age. Depending on your son's age at the time, this could indicate tachycardia, a rapid heartbeat, which may require medical attention. If the heart rate was sustained for a period and was accompanied by other symptoms like dizziness, shortness of breath, or chest pain, seeking immediate medical advice is crucial.
