Question 1

I'm curious if it's common to have mild mitral regurgitation. Can I live a normal life with it, or do I need to limit activities like exercise or long travel?

Accepted Answer

Mild mitral regurgitation usually does not cause any symptoms and does not typically require any restrictions on exercise or travel. You can continue to live a normal life without any limitations. However, it is important to follow up with your doctor regularly to monitor the condition and ensure it does not worsen.

Question 2

I'm experiencing some chest and arm pain, and I've been having heart palpitations lately. It's kind of weird because I can feel my heart pounding even when I'm just resting. I'm not super active, and my BMI is around 27.5. My HDL is only 34 but my bl...

Accepted Answer

Chest pain, arm pain, heart palpitations, and a high heart rate at rest with sinus tachycardia on ECG can be concerning symptoms. With a low HDL level and a BMI of 27.5, there may be underlying cardiovascular issues that need to be addressed. The PR interval of 197ms is slightly prolonged, which could indicate an atrioventricular conduction delay. Further evaluation is warranted to assess the overall cardiac function and rule out any underlying heart conditions. I recommend consulting a cardiologist for a thorough evaluation, which may include an echocardiogram, stress test, and possibly a Holter monitor to assess heart rhythm over a longer period. Additionally, lifestyle modifications such as regular exercise, a heart-healthy diet, and possibly medication like Atorvastatin to improve HDL levels may be beneficial in managing your cardiovascular health.
