I'm really worried about my 4-year-old who has a 2mm PDA hole in their heart. If we wait another six months before doing a device closure, what kind of impact could that have?

View allI'm a bit concerned about the results from my recent cardiac reports. Everything came back normal except the echocardiography, which indicated a mild mitral prolapse. Should I be worried about this?
Mild mitral valve prolapse is usually not a cause for concern and often does not require treatment. It is important to follow up with your doctor for regular check-ups to monitor your heart health. If you experience symptoms such as chest pain, palpitations, or shortness of breath, you should consult your doctor. No specific medication is required for mild mitral valve prolapse.

Sir, I'm 27 and have no bad habits like drinking or smoking, but my weight is 80 kg. For the past year, I've experienced daily pain in my left chest. Throughout this time, I've had 20 ECGs, 2 echocardiograms, and a TMT that was negative. My troponin levels are normal, along with a normal chest X-ray, random blood sugar, renal function tests, and thyroid function tests. My blood pressure is high at 16298, so I'm on Telma 20 tablets. Six months ago, my lipid profile was normal too. Why do I keep getting this pain in my left chest? It's causing me a lot of anxiety, and I worry about dying. I even got an ECG yesterday and attached the pic. Is there any other test I should consider for this pain?
The tests you have done so far indicate that your heart and other vital organs are functioning normally. Since your chest pain has been persisting for a year and you have already undergone multiple tests, it is important to consider other possible causes for your symptoms. One potential reason for your chest pain could be related to musculoskeletal issues or anxiety. I recommend trying over-the-counter pain relief medication like acetaminophen for your chest pain. Additionally, practicing relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises or yoga may help alleviate any anxiety-related chest discomfort. If your symptoms persist or worsen, you may consider consulting with a specialist such as a cardiologist or a gastroenterologist for further evaluation. They may suggest additional tests or imaging studies based on their clinical assessment. Remember to maintain a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise and a balanced diet, to support your overall well-being. If you have any concerns or new symptoms, do not hesitate to seek medical advice promptly.
