Cardiologist: Echo will not show blockages in coronary arteries. Minor regurgitation in multiple valves needs to be followed regularly by serial echoes and cardiologist exam and recommendations

Had ECHO done to rule out any adverse reason for RBBB. Came back as 'Normal Study'. There was trivial mitral valve regurgitation. Common? at risk?

My doctor suspects I have Lupus and sent me for an echo. Results normal except for "anterior mitral valve leaflet is long and slightly thickened". No prolapse or regurgitation. What would cause long/thickened leaflet? Lupus or something else? Thanks?
