I'm dealing with both mitral and aortic valve stenosis, plus some leakage, and I'm really hoping to avoid surgery if that's possible. Is there anything that can help me steer clear of needing valve replacement surgery?

Mitral valve stenosis and aortic valve leakage can be managed with medication to help control symptoms and slow down the progression of the condition. For mitral valve stenosis, you can take medications such as diuretics to reduce fluid buildup, beta-blockers to control heart rate, and blood thinners to prevent blood clots. For aortic valve leakage, medications like ACE inhibitors or ARBs can help reduce strain on the heart and improve symptoms. It is important to regularly monitor your condition with your healthcare provider and follow their recommendations for medication dosage and frequency.

View allWhen I lie down and then get up to walk, I experience a heavy feeling or difficulty in breathing for about 2 to 3 minutes. I also notice a heaviness in my upper abdomen during this time. After those few minutes, I feel normal again. I've had an X-ray, CT scan, ECG, and a 2D echo, and all the results came back normal. Should I be worried about this, or am I just overthinking it?

I'm feeling a bit worried because my ECG came back showing an abnormal sinus rhythm and something about an STT abnormality in V5V6. The report also mentioned left ventricular hypertrophy, and I've been experiencing dizziness and fatigue on and off. Just last Friday, my blood pressure was 150110, but then it dropped to 110130 by Sunday. Does this combination of symptoms and results suggest something serious that I should be concerned about, or could there be a more straightforward explanation? What should my next steps be?
Your ECG results indicate abnormal findings, including ST-T abnormalities in leads V5 and V6, suggesting possible myocardial ischemia or strain, and left ventricular hypertrophy, which may be related to high blood pressure, and your symptoms of dizziness and fatigue, combined with fluctuating blood pressure readings (150110), suggest that you should consult a cardiologist for further evaluation and management to rule out underlying conditions like hypertension, coronary artery disease, or cardiomyopathy.
