I sometimes feel like there's an extra heartbeat in my chest, especially when I bend down. Could this be related to my mild tricuspid regurgitation? I'm really worried about it.
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Yes, palpitations can be related to mild tricuspid regurgitation (TR). To help manage your symptoms, you can take a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol at a dosage of 25-50mg once daily. This can help regulate your heart rate and reduce the sensation of extra heartbeats. Remember to consult your doctor for proper evaluation and management.

View allI've been feeling really off latelyI'm a 50-year-old woman, and for the past little while, it feels like my heart is skipping a beat all the time. I've got high blood pressure and thyroid issues that I'm managing, but this heart thing is worrying me a lot. I went for a check-up two days ago, but I'm still feeling uneasy. Could it be something serious, or maybe something related to my medications or conditions? What should I do next? Im feeling a bit anxious about it.
You should have your ECG test done

Started feeling sweaty and uneasy out of nowhere and went to see the doctor. They did an ECG. Does this look normal to you? I'm a bit worried.
Based on the ECG provided, I cannot assess it without seeing the actual ECG report. It is important to discuss the results with your doctor who ordered the test. If there are any abnormalities or concerns, your doctor will be able to provide you with the appropriate treatment or further testing.

I'm a bit concerned about my mom's heart condition. She had an angina PCI a few years ago and had two stents placed in her LAD and RCA. After five years, her doctor stopped clopidogrel and now she's only on aspirin and atorvastatin. I'm just wondering, does this sound right to you? Should we be worried about taking her off clopidogrel? Would love some advice on this.
Clopidogrel and atorvastatin both do the same action that it control the lipid profile. So if she is taking aspirin and atorvastatin, i don't think there is a problem. It's perfect. No need to take both atorvastatin and clopidogrel.
