I'm really worried about my mom. She has been experiencing chest pain and some trouble with her breathing while walking. I know she has diabetes and issues with blood pressure too. Could these problems be connected to her existing health conditions, or is this something more serious? What should we do next?

I have rheumatic heart disease with moderate to severe mitral valve regurgitation and my LV is 58 - can this be managed with medications or do I need surgery
With rheumatic heart disease, moderate to severe mitral valve regurgitation, and an LV ejection fraction of 58%, the decision to manage with medication or surgery depends on the specific symptoms and the severity of the regurgitation and LV dysfunction. While medications can help manage symptoms and prevent complications, severe cases often require surgical intervention to repair or replace the mitral valve. Your doctor will consider your individual circumstances, including the severity of your condition, your overall health, and your symptoms, to determine the best course of treatment

My dad's pulse oximeter reading is 97 and his pulse rate is at 110. Is the pulse rate considered normal? I'm a bit concerned and would appreciate some advice.
a pulse rate of 110 beats per minute is slightly elevated but can still be considered normal, especially if your father is not experiencing any other symptoms. However, it would be best to monitor his pulse rate regularly and consult with a healthcare professional if you have any concerns. As for the pulse oximeter reading of 97%, this indicates that his blood oxygen saturation level is within the normal range. There is generally no need to worry about this reading. If your father continues to have a pulse rate of 110 or if you notice any other concerning symptoms, please consult with a healthcare provider for further evaluation.
