I'm 26 and just got a report saying I have mild tricuspid regurgitation. I'm really worried about whether this could become moderate or even severe. How long does it usually take for this to progress? Please help, I'm pretty scared.
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Tricuspid regurgitation (TR) can progress over time, but it is not possible to predict exactly how long it will take to progress from mild to moderate or severe. The progression of TR can be influenced by various factors such as underlying heart conditions, lifestyle choices, and overall health. It is important to monitor your condition regularly with follow-up appointments with your healthcare provider. In the meantime, you can discuss with your doctor about potential treatment options or lifestyle changes that can help manage TR and prevent it from worsening.

View allI'm really concerned about this situation. I recently experienced chest pain and pain in my left hand, so I went to the doctor and had a TMT test done. The results came back positive for exercise-induced myocardial ischemia. What's confusing is that I had a CT Coronary Angiogram back in 2019 and everything was normal then. Could you help me understand what this might mean for my heart health now? I've attached my TMT and Angiogram reports for reference.

I'm feeling this weird vibration on the right side of my chest every time I think about my phone. It started yesterday morning and seems to happen like every 30 minutes or so. What's strange is that I don't notice it when I'm busy, like cooking, but if I'm just sitting or reading, it really stands out. Could this be something medical, and should I be concerned?

I'm really worried about my wife. She's been having chest pain and the doctor recommended an ultrasound and an ECG. The ultrasound turned out normal, but the ECG showed something concerning. It mentioned "old high lateral MI." What does this mean, and what should we do next?
Your wife seems to have an old high lateral myocardial infarction based on the ECG findings. To manage her chest pain and heart condition, she can take Aspirin 75mg once daily to prevent blood clot formation and reduce the risk of heart attack. Additionally, she can take Clopidogrel 75mg once daily to further prevent blood clots. It is important for her to follow up with a cardiologist for further evaluation and management.
