I've been seeing several cardiologists and had a bunch of echoes and TMTs, but I'm still feeling really rough. I used to get panic attacks but haven't had one in about a year. These last 3 days, I've felt off and noticed my blood pressure is on the rise, getting up to like 140104 or 13495. I saw a cardiologist who is a DM, and he said the ECG was normal but the echo showed mild TR, RSVP 45mmHg, and mild PAH. He prescribed me Dilzem 90. This morning I woke up and my heart rate was 111, and honestly, I felt like I was gonna collapse. Can you help me figure out what's going on?

I'm really sorry you're feeling this way. Given your history and current symptoms, it's understandable to be concerned. While your ECG and echo results show mild issues like mild tricuspid regurgitation and mild pulmonary hypertension, the elevated heart rate and BP need close monitoring. It's essential to follow up with your cardiologist and maybe explore further tests or adjustments to your treatment. Anxiety can also play a big role, so managing stress alongside medication might help stabilize things. Stay in touch with your doctor for tailored advice and reassurance.

I'm worried because my cardiologist told me to take Met XL 25 for my fast heart rate, but I accidentally bought Met XL 50 instead and took it this morning. Will taking the 50 mg dose be harmful to my health? Can you help me understand if I should be concerned?
taking Met XL 50 instead of Met XL 25 once should not cause significant harm to your health. However, it is important to stick to the prescribed dosage for optimal treatment. I recommend informing your cardiologist about the mix-up and following their guidance on whether to continue with Met XL 50 or switch back to Met XL 25 at the correct dosage.

I'm 28 and just got my echo results. It says I have a mitral valve prolapse with mild mitral regurgitation and a tricuspid valve prolapse with mild tricuspid regurgitation. My LEVF is 60, and my heart rate is 110. Should I be worried about these findings? Is this something serious?
Based on your echo report, the presence of mild mitral valve prolapse and regurgitation, as well as mild tricuspid valve prolapse and regurgitation, along with a left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of 60% and a heart rate of 110 beats per minute, indicate some abnormalities in your heart function. While mild valve prolapse and regurgitation are common and may not cause significant issues, it is important to monitor them regularly. To address the mild regurgitation and prolapse, you can take medication such as beta-blockers like Metoprolol Succinate (Toprol XL) to help regulate your heart rate and reduce strain on the valves. Additionally, you may benefit from ACE inhibitors like Lisinopril (Zestril) to help manage any potential heart failure risk. It is essential to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management of your heart condition. Regular monitoring and lifestyle modifications, such as maintaining a healthy diet, exercising regularly, and avoiding smoking, can also help manage these conditions and prevent any serious complications.
