After chest pain relieved by nitro, echo showed mvp with regurg, lae/rae, irreg heartbeat, ef 50%. lowered ef due to damage possibly? diangosis with cas too

MVP : Possible tachycardia induced cardiomyopathy response to nitro is non specific. At young age still possible for afib to be present. Bilateral atrial enlargement and low normal f ef is typically seen in arrhythmogenic cardiomyopaties.

Complicated: To make an accurate assessment, a cardiologist would need to know: a)the severity of the regurgitation. The rhythm (atrial fibrillation?), the size of the left ventricle, the size of the left atrium, the pulmonary artery pressure, and possibly the coronary anatomy
