I'm dealing with diastolic dysfunction grade 1 and sinus tachycardia and I've been having episodes of chest pain on and off. Sometimes I can't sleep throughout the night because of it. What should I do?

View allI've been diagnosed with mitral valve prolapse and I've got a bit of trivial regurgitation. The doctors said I don't need any treatment for it, which is reassuring, but Ive been using minoxidil 5% for my baldness and sometimes I notice my heart beats a little faster. My cardiologist mentioned it's okay to use it, and my dermatologist also recommended it knowing these symptoms. Is it genuinely safe to keep using minoxidil in my situation? I'm just a bit worried about how it might affect my heart condition.

I'm 22 and dealing with some heart-related issues. I had my heart checked, and they found mild MVP. I was put on a beta blocker, but it hasn't really helped with the intense chest pain Ive been experiencing. They've now suggested Flavedon MR for the pain. Do you think that's the right route, or should I be considering other medication options? I'm just not sure what to do next.
For your chest pain related to mild MVP, Flavedon MR can be a suitable medication to try. It contains Trimetazidine and helps in improving blood flow to the heart muscle. The usual dosage is 35 mg twice daily. However, if you do not find relief with Flavedon MR, you can discuss with your doctor about alternative medications such as Ranolazine or Ivabradine which may be more effective for your chest pain associated with MVP.

I've been having chest pain on the left side whenever I sleep on my left side, but it doesn't hurt when I switch to the right side. There aren't any other symptoms, just this pain. Do you have any idea what might be causing this?
This type of chest pain that occurs with certain movements or positions, such as when lying on the left side, can sometimes be related to musculoskeletal issues or inflammation of the chest wall. To help relieve the pain, you can try taking over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen (Tylenol) as needed. Additionally, applying a warm compress to the painful area may also provide some relief. If the pain persists or worsens, it is advisable to consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
