Hello doctor, I want to ask about a disease related to symptoms of heart palpitations, shortness of breath. Let me ask you, I just discovered that I have trouble breathing when I lie down with my legs straight, or my left chest pain is not very painful, my heart is pounding when I am sitting. I went to the doctor and said he had tricuspid heart valve 1⁄4. Ask your child if he has difficulty breathing when lying down, his heart is pounding when he is sitting, is his left chest pain due to open heart valve? Is the disease serious? Will the disease progress or will I die?
