Question 1

am i in any sort of danger because of mvp in pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

Mitral Valve: Mitral valve prolapse or mvp is compatible with pregnancy. An echocardiogram will determine how much blood reflux there is. A cardiologist can help determining your relative risk for complications.

Question 2

can a ballerina foot mvp be caused by pregnancy valve changes and can be reversed after pregnancy?

Accepted Answer

The heart does go: through some changes associated with pregnancy that might enhance the presence of MVP and some of this may remodel after delivery. Regardless, in the absence of significant regurgitation it is of limited clinical relevance.

Question 3

i have mvp 1-2 mr, lvedd = 4.4, lvesd = 2.5, iv = 0.7, ef=73%, is this critical am i in danger and should i worry, what is the treatment, is their medicine or just surgery?

Accepted Answer

: The condition is benign most of the time, especially if you are asymptomatic.
Your echocardiogram result seems fine.

Question 4

i have mvp. i started experiencing pvc 's is that dangerous?

Accepted Answer

Generally not: Depending upon PVC burden (&lt;15% is usually benign) but may be inconvenient.

Question 5

is early repolarization dangerous i have pvcs mvp and er?

Accepted Answer

No: Early repolarization is not dangerous ,  it is a benign ECG finding that reflects how your heart  resets itself after an electrical event (which precedes the mechanical event of contraction ).  Likewise, mvp in the vast majority of cases is  not dangerous and the pvc's associated are more a nuisance than a dange.  The exception is in rare cases when mvp is assoc with significant regurgitation.

Question 6

is mixing weed and xanax  makes heart beat faster than just using weed and make it dangerous for a mvp patient caused by anxiety?

Accepted Answer

Depends: what is the dose of xanax &amp; how much weed? MVP patient should not have any complication mixing weed &amp; Xanax,but without doses difficult to decide.

Question 7

i did echocardio i have mvp & extrasystole. i take magnesium. small effort my heart beating 120 min and 2-3 extrasystole. can i do sport? dangerous?

Accepted Answer

Begin slowly: MVP is generally not dangerous. Relatively increased heart rate with very mild exertion can be signs of dehydration, anemia (low blood count) or thyroid issues, and a high adrenalin state related to stress and anxiety. Also could be a sign of being out of shape. Would address above issues with your doctor. Hydrate, start exercise slowly and add stress reduction eg breathing, yoga, meditation.

Question 8

could my hital hernia cause shortness of breath when eating.  if so is it dangerous.  if not could it be my mvp with heart murmur help??

Accepted Answer

Shortness of breath: Shortness of breath can be caused by lots of things, from asthma to anxiety. Histal hernia generally won't cause it. Nor will mitral valve prolapse. However the anxiety that sometimes goes along with the mitral valve prolapse diagnosis could. Have you had allergies or asthma? Do you only get short of breath under stress or with exercise?  If you are anxious, please get a therapist to speak with!

Question 9

ecg - probable left atrial enlargement, in echo - mitral value - aml tip prolapse,mild mvp,
how dangerous they are in long term, will they create heart problems, can i continue my daily workout including weight lifting,  can these go back to normal?

Accepted Answer

Mild MVP : Mitral valve prolapse is an often overdiagnosed condition. Therefore the American society of echo came up with strict criteria. So "mild" and anterior leaflet "tip" makes me question the diagnoses. U may want to get a second Opinion. Having said that, prolapse is only a concern if the valve is also leaky. You make no mention of that - so no mitral regurgitation. Then ought not to be an issue.

Question 10

is anterior leaflet mvp serious?

Accepted Answer

Not usually: This will depend on if it causes the valve to leak, and how severe that is.  If the valve is leaking (regurgitation) your doctor will monitor this for you.
