I'm dealing with mild MVP and my MREF is at 60 percent. I've got a lot of anxiety and my stomach's frequently upset. Occasionally, I get palpitations, especially when I'm stressed out. What can I do to get rid of these symptoms?

based on your symptoms of mild mitral valve prolapse (MVP) with grade 1 mitral regurgitation (MR), anxiety, stomach upset, palpitations, and increased anxiety in stressful situations, I recommend the following treatment plan: 1. For anxiety, you can take a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) like Sertraline 50mg once daily. 2. For palpitations, you can take a beta-blocker like Metoprolol 25mg once daily. 3. For stomach upset, you can take an antacid like Omeprazole 20mg once daily before breakfast. 4. Practice stress-reducing techniques such as deep breathing exercises, meditation, or yoga. 5. Avoid caffeine, alcohol, and tobacco as they can worsen anxiety and palpitations. 6. Follow up with your doctor regularly to monitor your symptoms and adjust treatment as needed. I hope this treatment plan helps alleviate your symptoms

I've been having these heart palpitations lately, like a fluttering feeling in my chest, and my local cardiologist said I should take met XL 25. I've done all the tests like ECG, Echo, and TMT and everything came out normal, but I'm really nervous about starting this medication. Can you tell me if it's okay to take and what side effects I should watch out for? I'm just really not sure about it.

I'm a bit worried about my recent 2D echocardiogram report. All the measurements seem to be in range and my EF is at 62, which I guess is normal? But the report mentions a mild MR on the mitral valve and mild PR on the pulmonary valve. I sometimes feel dizzy when I go outside, and my neurologist mentioned it might be cardiac neurosis. I can't shake the feeling that something might be wrong with my heart. Can you help me understand what's really going on?

In 2d echocardiogram report, all measurements are within range and EF is 62%. However, the report shows mild mitral regurgitation (MR) and mild pulmonary regurgitation (PR). You mentioned feeling dizziness sometimes when you go outside, and a neurologist suggested it may be a cardiac neurosis issue. It's understandable to be concerned about the findings in the report. The mild MR and PR in the echocardiogram report are common findings and may not necessarily be the cause of your symptoms. In your case, where the EF is normal and other measurements are within range, these mild valve issues may not be the primary reason for your dizziness. To address your symptoms of dizziness, it would be important to consider other factors such as hydration, blood pressure, inner ear issues, or anxiety. However, if you are still concerned about the mild valve issues, you can discuss with your cardiologist about monitoring them periodically. For your dizziness, you can try to stay hydrated, avoid sudden position changes, and practice relaxation techniques. If the symptoms persist or worsen, further evaluation may be needed. I hope this information helps alleviate some of your concerns.

I'm a 31-year-old guy and have been experiencing chest pain since September 2017. All my tests like ECG, echocardiography, lipid profile, TMT, and CT coronary angiogram have come back normal. I also get pain in my hand and jaw, along with dizziness every day. My cardiologists told me it's anxiety disorder, but I'm still worried because the pain is persistent. The doctor has prescribed flavedon MR 35 to take twice a day and said to continue for a month. Should I expect to stop the medication after one month if the symptoms persist, or is this something I might need long-term? I'm just trying to figure out if this plan seems right given my symptoms.

Yes you can use it no problem and as your doctor said you might be having Anxiety disorder,visit Psychiatrist for appropriate management
