Can anxiety be the sole cause of mild to moderate mitral regurgitation?

Mitral regurgitation is caused by a weakening or failure of a heart valve. Anxiety will not cause this kind of problem. See your cardiologist for an assessment as to whether you’re mitral regurgitation is significant. Good luck.
