Question

I'm hoping to put on some weight by doing heavy weight lifting exercises, but I've been worried about my echo report from last October. It was just a routine checkup, and I'm completely fit, feeling fine, and have no issues. I do brisk walking for 45 minutes daily without any problems. I'm trying to figure out if it's just a mitral valve prolapse or if mitral valve prolapse with regurgitation is a concern. Could you advise me on how much weight I can safely lift given this condition? I've attached my report below.

Question

I had a little bike skid yesterday and it really scared me. I felt a bit of anxiety and had a little heart pain, but luckily no injuries. I went to see the doctor and they did an ECG to check for any problems. Is there anything else I should be worried about or any other steps I should take to make sure everything is okay?

Question

I recently did a 24-hour Holter monitoring because I've been feeling like my heart rate drops sometimes. The doctor said everything looked fine, but I'm still feeling uneasy about it. Could you take another look at the report to make sure everything's okay?

Question

I'm really worried about my dad. He's been dealing with heart issues and has stents. But he also has this tobacco chewing habit that I'm trying to help him kick. I've been thinking about getting him to try nicotine gum, but I'm not sure if it's safe for someone with his condition. Could it cause things like palpitations or any serious heart problems? I'm really hoping it won't have any bad effects. Would love to get your thoughts on this.
