Here's some info from one of the dr's in the expert forum - http://www.medhelp.org/posts/Heart-Disease/Myxomatous-Changes/show/252592

"Myxomatous changes of the mitral valve means that the valve leaflets contain extra connective tissue. This extra tissue causes the leaflets to abnormally extend into the top chamber(left atrium) of the heart. These findings can lead to worsening of regurgitation across the valve."

I'm sorry, I don't understand your post.

Try explaining this a bit better, or post in the heart disease expert forum to get an answer from a cardiologist.

Good luck, hope you get better.
