If your doc said that you came up with an abnormal ECHO then a diagnosis must have come along with that decision.  What did the doc say?

Hi Soso!
Echocardiograph can show how well your heart is pumping/squeezing.  Abnormal EKG can compromise overall cardiac output.  Mitral Regurgitation is commonly seen with arrythmias and can be diagnosed with an Echo.  Sometimes solving (curing) the arrythmia can cure the valvular dysfunction.
Good luck!
