I'm really worried about my parents' health. My father, who's 71, has a CT value of 18 and is a heart patient. My mother is 70, her CT value is 6, and she's diabetic. Should I be concerned about their condition? Would appreciate any advice you can give!

My echo showed mild mitral valve prolapse with trivial mitral regurgitation and trivial tricuspid regurgitation but no mitral stenosis. The doctor said there's a slight issue with my heart valve and prescribed nucoxia, pantocide, amixide, and liv52. They mentioned I'll be okay but I still get symptoms sometimes. Is this condition curable or will I eventually need surgery?

please consult CTVS for better advise.

I'm a bit confused and worried about my latest ECG results. It showed a borderline and incomplete right bundle branch block. This wasn't even brought up when I went to the ER; I only noticed it when I looked at my test results later. Should I be concerned about it? What does it really mean for my health?

yes it is a concern immediate cardiologist opinion is required.

Ive been experiencing some chest pain on the upper right side whenever I laugh. Its strange because the pain shows up only during laughter and then just disappears. Should I be worried about this, or is it something that might just pass on its own?
