I've been told I have a skipped heartbeat and trivial Mitral regurgitation, and the echo and Holter tests confirmed the Mitral regurgitation. I'm really curious about what this means for my daily life. How often can I live normally with this condition? Also, how long does it usually take for it to progress from trivial to mild or moderate?

View allI've been smoking for the past four years and drink daily. Seven months ago, I had a stress echo, and it came back normal, even though my lipid levels, Lp(a), and triglycerides were high. Recently, I've been experiencing dizziness that comes and goes, heart palpitations, ringing in my ears, feeling my heartbeat in my ears, the sensation of my heart skipping a beat, and burping. Could these symptoms be related to a heart issue? I'm worried because of my lifestyle habits and these recurring symptoms.
"Based on your symptoms and risk factors such as smoking and daily drinking, it is important to further evaluate your heart health. The dizziness, heart palpitations, ringing in ears, feeling of skipping a beat, and burping could be related to your heart. I recommend you to consult a doctor for further evaluation and consider starting on a medication like Atorvastatin (10mg) for high lipid levels and Fenofibrate (145mg) for high TG levels to manage your cardiovascular risk factors."

I'm really worried because I've been experiencing shortness of breath almost every day for the past year. It's like I can't breathe deeply and feels like there's air trapped in my chest. It's happening even when I'm just resting with no apparent triggers. I also sometimes feel dizzy and have trouble focusing. I've noticed that this used to only happen occasionally, like during exercise or when the weather was bad, but now it's nearly constant. I'm currently taking verapamil three times a day to manage my tachycardia and hypertension. Could any of this be related, or what might be causing these feelings?
Seroflo inhaler sos is advised to the pt for wheezing.
