A member asked:
Left sided tearing discomfort when stressed or sudden exertion(no pain when ramped up exertion) 2 normal nst's, echo shows mvp. is my pain cardiac?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Mitral valve prolaps: Mvp is a cardiac condition and can cause the type of pain you are describing. Although typically benign, it is associated with heart arrhythmias such as psvt (paroxysmal supra-ventricular tachycardia) . Ask your cardiologist to explain this issue better to you.
