Question 1

I'm 50 years old and was diagnosed with mitral valve prolapse at 18, but there's no blood regurgitation according to my echocardiogram. I checked with a doctor about 8 years ago, and they said it's not something to worry about. Should I mention this condition when getting my COVID-19 vaccine?

Accepted Answer

An ECG report indicating sinus rhythm, normal axis, and T and ST wave abnormalities suggests potential cardiac issues. While not necessarily serious, it requires further evaluation. Consider:

Next Steps

1. Consult a cardiologist for interpretation and guidance.
2. Additional tests: Holter monitor, echocardiogram, or stress test.
3. Review medical history and medications.

Question 2

I'm feeling really anxious because I'm going for an echocardiogram soon, and I'm worried that my heartbeat might increase during the test. Do you think it's okay for me to take Cipla 10 before the echo? Will it affect the results in any way?

Accepted Answer

no get it tested without medications

Question 3

I'm taking Navicard 5 mg regularly, as prescribed by my doctor. But recently, I've been having some mild chest pain, so I saw a cardiologist who prescribed Angizem CD 90 for my morning dose. He didnt mention anything about the Navicard though. Now I'm wondering, should I be taking both medications, or just one of them?

Accepted Answer
