I just got my hands on a copy of my echo from 10 years ago and from what I can tell it seems pretty normal with the exception of the following .. " trace aortic insufficiency " and " probable left pleural effusion " there is also some " mild regurgitation " is this something that should have been addressed back then ?? By the way .. My primary MD is unable to locate my chart that contains this report !! I do have an appt with a cardiologist for a consult, EKG and an Echocardiogram, but in the meanwhile I am going nuts!!!
Wow, that's really interesting! I bet it was a shock! Your cough and wheeze may be totally unrelated, though, which is probably a good thing. It makes you wonder how accurate that other test you had was. I would think you should probably see a cardiologist to have a proper echo done and then go from there. Good luck.
