Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have had a right supraclavicular node for 1 year. Increased constipation and left lower abdominal discomfort. The past 6 months I have noticed dyspnea and bounding in chest with exertion. As simple as climbing a few flights of stairs. When this happens I feel some sensation in the sternal region almost like fluid in my chest. I listened toy heart during the episode and noted a loud murmer. I have had a murmer sine 18 years old that was diagnosed as mitral valve prolapse. My Bp has been slightly elevated the past year with increased readings the past couple months and was started on a diuretic. I m ultimately concerned that there is and underlying cancer causing all symtoms. Should this be of any concern??

hi if you are more specific with supra clavicular lymph node,episodes of constipation, abdominal discomfort left sided,fluid , shortness of breath, please get evaluated as early as possible for any gastrointestinal carcinoma , especially gastric cancer. murmur can be due to the mitral valve prolapse or severe anaemia due to the present problems. please get evaluated for the gastric cancer with CT abdomen & whole body scan to rule out for any metastatic spread,accordingly you can meet the oncologist, all the best take care
