Question 1

I've been diagnosed with RHD along with severe MS, severe MR, and moderate eccentric AR, but the ejection is normal. I'm feeling pretty worried and a bit confused about what all this means and how I should proceed. Could you give me some guidance on what steps to take next?

Accepted Answer

For the management of Rheumatic Heart Disease (RHD) with severe Mitral Stenosis (MS), severe Mitral Regurgitation (MR), moderate eccentric Aortic Regurgitation (AR) with normal ejection fraction, the following treatment approach can be considered: 1. For symptomatic relief and to improve heart function, you can consider medications such as: - Diuretics like Furosemide (Lasix) to reduce fluid buildup - Beta-blockers like Metoprolol to control heart rate and blood pressure - ACE Inhibitors like Lisinopril to reduce strain on the heart - Anticoagulants like Warfarin to prevent blood clots 2. In severe cases, surgical interventions may be necessary such as: - Mitral valve repair or replacement for severe MS and MR - Aortic valve repair or replacement for moderate AR 3. Regular follow-up with a cardiologist is essential to monitor the condition and adjust treatment as needed. It is important to adhere to the prescribed treatment plan and make lifestyle modifications such as maintaining a healthy diet, regular exercise, and avoiding smoking to manage RHD with severe MS, severe MR, moderate eccentric AR with normal ejection.

Question 3

I'm curious about my recent test results. My TMT came back positive for reverse myocardial ischemia, but the rest of my tests, like my lipid profile, were normal, aside from my high blood pressure. The doctor gave me meds for the BP, but seemed pretty concerned about the TMT results. Could it be possible that the TMT was a false positive since everything else seems fine, except for my blood pressure being high?

Accepted Answer

An echo is advised.Yes false positive are present in some cases ..

I'm really worried because my blood pressure isn't going back to normal even after taking my medication. It's been pretty stress-inducing, and I'm not sure which specialist I should see about it. Do you think a specific type of doctor would be better suited for treating this kind of issue?
