I'm a bit worried because I've been having chest pain for the last two weeks. I just got my 2D echo report, and it says I have a mild prolapse of the anterior mitral leaflet. I'm not diabetic, I don't smoke, and I don't drink alcohol. Other than that, all the other results in the echo report seem to be normal. Should I be concerned about this? Could you please take a look at my reports and give me some advice?

Based on your description and the 2D echo report showing mild mitral valve regurgitation, I recommend starting treatment with a calcium channel blocker such as Amlodipine 5mg once daily to help with the chest pain and manage the mild regurgitation. Additionally, you can take Aspirin 75mg once daily to reduce the risk of any clot formation. It is important to follow up with your cardiologist for further evaluation and management.

View allI'm thinking about doing a TMT in a week since I've had hyper acidity issues. I've already done tests like a thyroid profile, ECG, and echo, and everything came back normal. A friend suggested I should consider a TMT as well. Do you think there's a chance it might show something positive?
A TMT (Treadmill Test) is commonly used to assess the heart's response to stress and can help diagnose coronary artery disease. Given that your thyroid profile, ECG, and echo are normal, the chances of a positive TMT result are lower. However, it is still important to proceed with the TMT as advised. If you experience hyperacidity during the test, you can take antacids like "Ranitidine" 150mg before the test to help manage the symptoms.

Hey, I'm really puzzled by my dad's ECG test results, and I'm hoping you can shed some light on it for me. He's 66 and the report mentions something about a "sinus rhythm" and "suspect inferior myocardial infarction." There's also a note on "right axis deviation." Should I be concerned about these findings? What do these terms mean for his heart health? I'd appreciate your help in understanding what all this technical stuff means.
Probable differential diagnosis include right axis deviation and myocardial infarction.. Ecg and cardiac markers advised and cardiac opinion..

My mom had an angioplasty about 36 hours ago with two stents placed because her artery was fully blocked. Now she's in the ICU and her heart rate is pretty high, like around 152 bpm, and it's averaging about 125 bpm. Plus, she's had low blood pressure a few times. Is this something we should be worried about? Could these be signs of any complications? Would really appreciate your advice.
The low blood pressure could be a result of reduced heart function or other factors. To address the high heart rate, a beta-blocker medication like Metoprolol can be prescribed to help lower the heart rate. It is important to consult a cardiologist to assess her cardiac function in detail.
