See cardiologist: Mitral valve prolapse is fairly common condition that in most cases doesn't cause symptoms, if you have all those symptoms consult with cardiologist, although the most common test echo is not the only test to assess your symptoms, especially if the symptoms interact with your everyday life.

Medication: Medications can help with mvp. However w/o the echocardiogram it will be more difficult to know for sure that it is mvp. Ask your doctor why there is a10 month wait for the echo and if meds like beta blockers could help in the interim.

Nothing: If you haven't had the echo, then the diagnosis of mvp has not been established. Even if you do have it, mvp does not cause these symptoms. Doctors blame all kinds of things on mvp but they are not related. There is no treatment required for mvp and none that is helpful. If the wait for an echo is that long then you are in the wrong health system.
