I'm curious about some symptoms I've been experiencing. A few months back, I did an echo report and a TMT, which came back negative. Lately, though, I've been having this pressure and a burning sensation in my chest, plus a lot of burping. I'm a bit worriedis this something heart-related? Should I consider getting more tests done to check my heart health? Would love to hear your thoughts.

based on your symptoms of pressure in chest, burping, burning sensation, and pain in chest, it is important to further evaluate your heart health. In addition to the echo report and negative TMT, I would recommend a few more tests for a comprehensive heart evaluation. 1. ECG (Electrocardiogram): To assess the electrical activity of your heart. 2. Holter Monitor: To monitor your heart's activity over a period of time. 3. Cardiac CT Scan or MRI: To get detailed images of your heart's structure and function. 4. Blood tests: Such as lipid profile and cardiac enzymes to check for any abnormalities. Based on the results of these tests, further treatment or management can be determined.

I've just had a 2D echo because I was experiencing chest pain, and I'm currently breastfeeding. Could you take a look at the results? I'm really worried about whether mild TR is something to be concerned about. Would love your insight on this situation.

Mild tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is a common finding in many people and is often not a cause for concern. However, since you are experiencing chest pain and are a breastfeeding mother, it is important to follow up with your healthcare provider for a thorough evaluation. In the meantime, you can take Acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg every 4-6 hours as needed for chest pain relief.

I've got my ECG results, and it mentions left axis deviation and early repolarization. I'm 21 and male, and I'm really confused about what this means for my health. Should I be worried about being medically unfit? What should I do next?

You should show your ECG report to a physician to get a clearer picture of your condition. Left axis deviation can be seen in various conditions, such as left ventricular hypertrophy, left bundle branch block and even inferior wall myocardial infarction. Early repolarisation refers to ST segment elevation with no underlying cause.

I was recently told I have mitral valve regurgitation with trivial mitral regurgitation, and I'm really worried about how long it might take for this to get worse, like to a moderate or severe level. Do most people with this condition experience a worsening over time, and how common is it for it to progress? I'm finding it hard to concentrate on anything else because I'm so anxious about it. Can you help clarify this for me?
