View allI have a small perimembranous VSD and got checked by a doctor a year ago who said everything was normal. Should I keep getting follow-ups every 2 years or do I need surgery or device closure? Also, can you suggest affordable hospitals for the procedure since I'm from a middle-class family?

My echo showed mild mitral valve prolapse with trivial mitral regurgitation and trivial tricuspid regurgitation but no mitral stenosis. The doctor said there's a slight issue with my heart valve and prescribed nucoxia, pantocide, amixide, and liv52. They mentioned I'll be okay but I still get symptoms sometimes. Is this condition curable or will I eventually need surgery?
please consult CTVS for better advise.
