I've been experiencing some unusual muscle twitching for the past couple of weeks, especially in my upper left arm, and sometimes it happens in my chest too. Its mainly my arm thats twitching quite a bit. I'm really worried that this could be related to my heart. Could this muscle twitching be a sign of a heart issue?

I've been having chest pain every evening, even though my ECG, echocardiography, TMT, and CT coronary angiogram all come back normal. My cardiologist prescribed Flavedon MR 35, to be taken twice a day. Is this the right approach? Is there anything else I should be looking into for these everyday symptoms?

I'm 25 and have been having trouble breathing for about 6 months now. I got a 2D echo done, and it says I have mitral valve prolapse with mild mitral regurgitation and type 1 diastolic dysfunction. How serious is this, and is there a chance it could get worse over the next few years?
