A member asked:

My mitral regurg had not progressed. the cardiologist told me i didn't need to make an appt. to only come in if a problem. i don't need monitoring?

Correct: Your profile says that you have "mild mitral regur." mild regurgitation never causes problems and nearly 100% of the population in your age group has it. It does not require monitoring and doesn't cause symptoms.
