I have a leaking mitral valve since it started my anxiety has been terrible why?

Anxiety: How did you learn that your mitral valve is leaking? People often worry about their health, especially those with ongoing anxiety. Mitral valve prolapse is common, but often produces no leakage or symptoms. Still, it can be anxiety-provoking to learn of a health issue -- is there a follow-up plan? Is treatment suggested? Your doctor may be able to answer your questions, and calm your anxiety.

Perfection?: Friend -- none of us is perfect! i think your anxiety has nothing to do with the leaky valve -- of course you need to see a cardiologist to evaluate the extent of the leaky valve and whether you need treatment.

Palpitations?: Leaking mitral valves into themselves don't cause anxiety.
