Your doctors have seen your EKG's and if they are not concerned, then don't be concerned. I'm sure you have read on this site that the machines over-read many things that are not serious. Did you see the physician's response on the doctor board to your concern about MVP? Even if you DO have mild MVP, it is not a concern. The doctor did suggest you get some help for an anxiety issue.

Very common finding. Sometimes a reason of little import or no reason at all. Zero predictive value. Absent the presence of other findings it's meaningless.
They would have told you if it meant anything. Computers cannot read ekgs in context because they don't own any sense.
