I'm a bit worried about the possibility of blockages in my arteries. What tests should I consider if I want to know about blockages at all levels, even if they're just in the early stages? Could you explain what those tests involve and how accurate they are?

View allI'm hoping to put on some weight by doing heavy weight lifting exercises, but I've been worried about my echo report from last October. It was just a routine checkup, and I'm completely fit, feeling fine, and have no issues. I do brisk walking for 45 minutes daily without any problems. I'm trying to figure out if it's just a mitral valve prolapse or if mitral valve prolapse with regurgitation is a concern. Could you advise me on how much weight I can safely lift given this condition? I've attached my report below.
Moderate weight lifting is advised.

I've been experiencing a strange fluttering feeling just under my left breast since last night. I'm not sure if it's just gas or if I'm having heart palpitations, but it's really uncomfortable and kept me from sleeping well. Theres no pain, and my smart band shows my heart rate is 83 with a SPO2 of 96. Can you help me figure out what's going on?
The weird fluttering sensation under your left breast, without pain, could be due to various reasons such as heart palpitations, anxiety, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), or even gas trapped in the digestive system; given your normal heart rate and oxygen saturation levels, try relaxation techniques, avoid caffeine and heavy meals, and if the sensation persists or worsens, consider consulting a cardiologist

Can a young person really die from hypertension? I'm super anxious because whenever I get anxious, my heart starts racing and I worry it might lead to a sudden cardiac arrest. Is that something I should be concerned about?
Hypertension can lead to serious health complications if left untreated, including an increased risk of heart disease, stroke, and kidney damage. While it is rare for a young person to die directly from hypertension, it is important to manage and control high blood pressure to prevent long-term complications. Anxiety itself does not directly cause hypertension, but it can contribute to temporary spikes in blood pressure. It is important to address and manage anxiety to prevent these spikes and reduce the risk of complications. In your case, managing anxiety may help reduce your heart palpitations and lower the risk of sudden cardiac arrest. To help manage your anxiety and reduce the risk of complications, you can consider speaking with a healthcare provider about potential treatment options. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques, regular exercise, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle can also help improve your overall well-being.
