I'm 22 and dealing with some heart-related issues. I had my heart checked, and they found mild MVP. I was put on a beta blocker, but it hasn't really helped with the intense chest pain Ive been experiencing. They've now suggested Flavedon MR for the pain. Do you think that's the right route, or should I be considering other medication options? I'm just not sure what to do next.

For your chest pain related to mild MVP, Flavedon MR can be a suitable medication to try. It contains Trimetazidine and helps in improving blood flow to the heart muscle. The usual dosage is 35 mg twice daily. However, if you do not find relief with Flavedon MR, you can discuss with your doctor about alternative medications such as Ranolazine or Ivabradine which may be more effective for your chest pain associated with MVP.

View allI've been noticing something a bit worrying lately sometimes it feels like my heart just sinks for a brief moment, less than a minute, and then things feel normal again. I kind of ignored it at first, but it happened again today, and now I'm a bit concerned. This has been going on occasionally over the past 34 months, and I've counted around 56 times when this has happened. Do you think this could be a sign of a minor attack, or is it something else I should be looking into? What kind of tests would you recommend I get done?
cardiac markers and ecg are advised..

I'm really puzzled about my mom's test results. Her echocardiogram showed an LVEF of 40-45, but a recent cardiac MRI said it's just 25. This just doesn't seem right because she's not showing any serious symptomsno shortness of breath, no swelling in her legs or stomach. She goes about her day without any issues at all. Could there be an error with the cardiac MRI?
It is possible that there could be a discrepancy between the two imaging tests. However, it is important to follow up with your cardiologist to discuss these findings and determine the best course of action. In the meantime, medications like Carvedilol (Coreg) at a dosage of 6.25mg twice daily and Lisinopril (Zestril) at a dosage of 5mg once daily can be considered to help improve heart function.

I'm really concerned about my pulse rate which is constantly between 120 to 130, and it sometimes shoots up to 150 or 170 when I'm feeling anxious. Lately, I've been feeling pretty worn out, and since I had a bad fever last month, it just seems like my pulse is higher than ever. It almost feels like I can hear it all the time, like listening through a stethoscope. Do you have any tips to help me bring down my pulse rate naturally, without having to go through treatments, scans, or using medication?
