Question : As a child I was dx with MVP. When I last saw my cardiologist for near fainting spells, unexplained racing beats while resting, and dizziness after swimming laps, I was told that I had grown out of it. I recently had a physical for my new job with the state and the physician asked me if I knew I had a heart murmur. I told him that as a child I had been dx with MVP and had an echo at 12. My question is why did the state physician hear a murmur (graded it at +2) and my cardiologist did not? I do not know if I have regurgitation, I am now 23. Should I have a repeat echo?
The murmur of MVP can be heard sometimes and inaudible at other times. Since your cardiologist didn't hear it, I doubt if you have a significant leak. If you are healthy and can exercise as well as others your age, I would never get another echo. MVP is benign, unlikely ever to have and bad effect on your heart. On the other hand, if you are worried, why not get another echo. Echoes are absolutely harmless.

It’s like a really surprising blog for any one who is suffering from heart disease. But the rate at which damage occurs to the heart cells are far beyond their recovery cycle. So, though it might not be that helpful in recovery, but still for youngsters, it can be like a boon. Isn’t it natural for us to believe we are healthy and not suffering from any disease? I had a similar thought process until my physician asked me to get a heart scan done after he found that my basic cardiograms were not perfect. I discovered that there were calcium deposits in my coronary arteries and I was at a serious risk of a heart attack. I was shocked and went ahead with the Cardiologist's suggestion of an advanced diagnostic scan. Though it’s always tough to undergo such experiences, I was not at any kind of discomfort at the Elitehealth.com advanced heart scan facility. I am not an expert in medical appliance and machines but could feel that the equipment was world-class and I was in safe hands. That feeling is really very important for me and that’s how it actually went on. The facilities for Full Body Scan were as good as they can get.
