Two of my heart valves are leaking. symptoms started two weeks ago. what is a cause of sudden valve problems. severe symptoms. breathless. pain.

Heart Valves leaking: I am not sure how you know you have 2 heart valves leaking - I assume you saw a cardiologist and got an ECHO. Most 'sudden' valve leakage problems (given your age) are viral/bacterial infections....usually patients complain of the 'flu' and 2 weeks later present like you did (vs. a myocardial infarction (heart attack in older patients). You need to talk to your cardiologist soon for treatment.
