Mitral Valve Prolapse please help

30 years old. Had an echo done and cardiologist said i had a click and its MVP but said aside from avoiding stimulants. That I can continue to exercise and have no limitation to activities. Said to follow up only as needed. I feel as though i was brushed aside. My mom has this condition so I can't help but feel as though that's my source. So what can I expect now? An early death, heart attack, increased stroke risk? He didn't quite tell me what type of MVP it is and apparently there are different kinds and all he said was a click during the echo.

How would someone with this even know if their leaking too much and if its getting really bad? Insight please and thank u.

I wasn't prescribed any medication. Dr didn't think it was needed. Genuine or too laxed and passive? Idk. I would be lying if I said I am okay this is really scary for me and I really just want some support
