What r the chances at age 47 with a leaky heart value. heart at functioning at 45 percent. of a herart attack.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See your doc: A leaky valve and a weak heart muscle would not increase your risk of a heart attack unless they are severe. You should see your cardiologist to assess your risk of having a heart attack ( by taking your history and doing your exam, doing blood work and possibly a stress test...) but most of all find out the reason of your leaky valve and weak heart muscle at such an early age.
