I've noticed lately that my heart starts pounding really hard, like when I get up from sitting down. Also, I've been dealing with some acidity and constipation issues. My doctor prescribed me rabeprazole, but my ECG showed a heart rate of 112, which seems quite high. Could you help me figure out what's going on with this high heart rate?

I'm a bit confused about my recent echo reports. The first one mentioned mild MR and MVP, but when I went to another hospital for a second opinion, they only found mild MR, no MVP. What should I do next? Should I be concerned about this discrepancy?
To confirm the presence of mitral valve prolapse (MVP), it is important to have a thorough evaluation by a cardiologist. In the meantime, for mild mitral regurgitation (MR), you can take medication like Losartan 50mg once daily to help manage the condition. It is also important to follow up with your cardiologist for further evaluation and management.

I'm really worried about my dad. He's been dealing with pain in his left arm for over six years now, and at first, he was diagnosed just with hypertension. But after some more tests, they found out he has angina. The doctor recommended he take medication for about 23 weeks and then get an angiography. I'm wondering if we definitely need to go through with the angiography, or is there another way to handle this? And how serious is his condition?
It is important to follow your doctor's advice regarding the need for angiography, as it is a procedure that can provide valuable information about the condition of the heart and blood vessels. In the meantime, to manage angina, your father can take medications such as Nitroglycerin to relieve chest pain and improve blood flow to the heart. Additionally, medications like Aspirin and Beta-blockers can help reduce the workload on the heart and prevent further complications. It is important to continue monitoring blood pressure and cholesterol levels as well. Angina is a serious condition that requires proper management and monitoring to prevent complications such as heart attack.
