A member asked:
My mvp has gotten worse in the last month, i think it may be stress related. i have doubled my meds with no relief. should i see dr?

Definitely see doc: Never increase meds without first consulting the prescribing doctor. If mvp symptoms have worsened, doc should know that & adjust meds accordingly. Please do not self-medicate.

Yes: If you feel your symptoms are worse, prior to increasing your medications, you should talk it over with your primary physician or your cardiologist.
