I'm really concerned because over the last three months, I've been noticing that my heart occasionally skips a beatit happens about an hour a day. My blood pressure is also around 14090. I've had some tests done, like an echo and a Holter monitor, and my doctor mentioned something about trivial mitral regurgitation. Should I be worried about this and the skipped heartbeats? What does all of this mean for my heart health?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Trivial mitral regurgitation is a common finding and usually does not cause any symptoms or require treatment. As for the skipped heart beats, if they are occasional and not causing any other symptoms, they may not be concerning. However, since you are experiencing them frequently, it would be best to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation. In the meantime, you can try to manage your symptoms by reducing stress and anxiety. If your doctor deems it necessary, they may prescribe medications such as beta-blockers like Metoprolol to help regulate your heart rate and blood pressure. It is important to follow your doctor's recommendations for further management.

View allI'm feeling really confused about something. My ECG says I have LAD, but I'm not experiencing any symptoms, and both my echo and TMT came back normal. I haven't been diagnosed with LAH, BLBB, or LVH. So, why would I have LAD? I've attached my ECG if that helps. Can someone explain what's going on here?
Based on the information provided and the attached ECG, it appears that you have been diagnosed with Left Anterior Descending (LAD) artery involvement. In this case, it is important to focus on managing your cardiovascular health. I recommend starting treatment with Aspirin 75mg daily to prevent clot formation in the arteries. Additionally, you can take Atorvastatin 20mg daily to help lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of further artery blockage. Regular follow-up with your healthcare provider is essential to monitor your condition and adjust treatment as needed.
