I'm 25 years old and recently found out I have mitral valve prolapse with trivial mitral regurgitation and an LVEF of 67. I'm really into staying active and love activities like running, jogging, swimming, skipping, and even mountain climbing. I'm just wondering, is it safe for me to keep doing these activities? And are there any specific things I should avoid or be careful about because of my condition?

I'm a bit confused about the difference between a 2D echo and a stress 2D echo. Can you explain how they're different and in what situations each one might be used? Also, I've heard about coronary angiography but I'm not quite clear on what it is and why someone would need to have it done. I'm feeling a little anxious about all these procedures and would appreciate some clarity.

I'm currently on clopidogrel 75 mg and aspirin 75 mg daily. I'm thinking of switching to clopitab CV 20 mg instead. Is it okay for my health to stop the aspirin and just take clopitab CV 20 mg? Would love to hear your opinion on whether this is a good idea or not.

NO u have to continue all the medications including aspirin also.

I've been having this chest pain on the right side near my shoulder for a couple of months now. I saw a doctor near my place, and he checked me out, saying there's nothing to worry about, but the pain is still bothering me. He gave me some medicine called UGESIC 20mg and suggested I get an HB test. What could this pain mean, and should I be doing something more or different?

yes
