I have been diagnosed with
mitralMitral regurgitation - chronic
Mitral stenosis
Mitral valve prolapse valve prolapse and quite frankly, I don't understand how I got it.
Based on the information that I heard about MVP, it supposedly occurs amoung
people that are not in shape and I work out at least five times a week.
I recently lost 42 pounds but before I lost it I was not overweight and
I wasn't having any of the symptoms.
Is it possible that I was born with it and did something to aggervate it?
It seems like one day this just popped out of nowhere and
I have been having symptoms ever since then.
_I am 47 years old . I was diognosed when i was in my early 20s .The Dr. said i was born with it . Carol
