The stitches from my bypass surgery are really painful and I feel like my skin is stretching, especially when I walk. Is this normal or should I be worried?

View allI recently got an echo report showing mild tr and trivial mr but my LVEF is 70 with normal LV function. I'm a football player with no symptoms but worried about the valve leakage. Should I be concerned about the mild tr? Does this mean I need surgery or can I continue playing sports? The report says everything else is normal but I'm anxious about the leak.
cardiologist opinion is advised.

I'm 41, unmarried, and I'm carrying quite a bit of extra weight108 kg with a height of 5 feet 7 inches. I've got asthma and I used to take Formoflo inhaler 250mg and Asthalin rotohaler 200mg regularly, even Montek AB for a bit. But since I haven't had symptoms for a while, I stopped. Then recently, after climbing stairs, I had some breathing trouble and found myself needing to take deep breaths and yawning a lot throughout the evening. I did an ECG a week ago that showed everything was okayjust that my heart skipped a beat. My last master health check-up was 45 days ago and that was fine too. I saw a cardiologist because I had chest pain, and they suggested doing a TMT. I've also got GERD. So, my mind's been racing a bitshould I be worried about heart disease or fluid in my lungs? I'd really appreciate some guidance.

Lately, Ive been noticing that every time I stand up or go for a walk, my heart starts racing to around 130bpm, and it doesnt calm down until I sit or lie down. My chest hurts, and my legs feel weak and shaky during these times too. I did have an iron deficiency last year, but it never made me feel like this, and even though it's still slightly low, my recent results show it's getting better. Ive had an ECG done, and that seemed fine, so I'm wondering if I should be seeing a cardiologist. Could this be something serious?
Yes, given your symptoms of a racing heart rate when standing or walking, chest pain, and weakness in your legs, it would be prudent to visit a cardiologist. These symptoms may indicate a condition called postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) or other cardiovascular issues that require further evaluation. Even though your ECG is fine and your iron levels are improving, it is essential to rule out any underlying heart conditions or dysautonomia. A cardiologist can perform additional tests, such as a Holter monitor, echocardiogram, or tilt table test, to better understand the cause of your symptoms and recommend an appropriate treatment plan.
