I have a leaky mitral valve - Mitral valve regurgitation

[@sherritafredieu5596]

I have mitral regurgitation I'm always out of breath and I can't walk long distances at all. I had to stop working because I didn't feel productive anymore because I was tired all the time. I've had so many tests in the last five months but my doctor just monitoring things right now. I have chest pains on a daily basis along with palpitations. Most days I'm bloated and nauseated as if my heart was going to jump out my chest. I thank God so much for caring for me sick or well. I owe everything to God especially when these pains are going down my left arm and I can't be still. I serve an awesome God and he always there.

[@helenemc5008]

God will always be by your side!! I will pray for you! I have a leaky heart valve as well and its no fun :( But all we can do is trust in the lord!

[@noleekasmith3923]

[@sherritafredieu5596]

I thank you for your response to my comment. I'm frustrated with myself because I want to exercise but I don't have the willpower to start. My heart doctor wants me to bulid my lungs up and start walking but that is so hard for me. You know maybe I can start short distance and build up. My biggest fear is going to far and collapsing from lack of oxygen. I know I'm probably over thinking the situation but I'm just afraid of my whole diagnosis. I'm not even 50yrs old but I'm living in the body of an old person. I want my life back where I'm able to experience whatever I want and enjoy things I use too. I will not let this control me. HELP

My GP heard a murmur and I’ve been having problems with my heart for years (undiagnosed) but I’ve always known something was wrong. I went a few weeks ago and I’ve got an Echo on the 27th of February and I’ve got a 48 hour tape starting on the same day. I’m hoping it’s something that doesn’t require surgery 😳 I get really very stressed watching hospital programmes on the telly and I always feel like im the one having the procedures done (even though I’m the viewer) I’m extremely squeamish and I hate needles! So I’m dreading it but also looking forward to getting to the bottom of my problem

[@Thekeyholeheartclinic]

Thank you for sharing. Best to get this better evaluated as you say. If the leak is severe and you have a repairable valve then the best treatment is surgery with a very good long term outcome for you.

My kid was diagnosed with a valve regurgitation, the doctor recommend follow up every year and testing done every 2 years.

[@miketaylor7440]

I had mitral valve replacement (mechanical) two weeks ago tomorrow. Early days yet of course in the recovery process but things seem to have settled down a bit. This video. Explains everything very well so thank you for that. My symptom was breathlessness. No pain or knowledge that I had it.

[@AlexandraZe]

So what can we do to reverse it? I was put on metoprolol 5 years ago, and I am only 29. I don't feel any better, I still get palpitations, shortness of breath and cannot exercise. I also suffer from alot of anxiety. I feel that there are not enough studies on this matter, we are just sitting and waiting for it to get worse and then get surgery, but that doesn't seem like the best solution, does it? I wish heart doctors would be more educated on mvp and give us sufferers of mitral regurgitation a complete plan that we can follow to feel better and even reverse it, as I've heard it's possible. From nutrition, to supplements, exercises to do, breathing techniques etc. When will that exist for us who feel so darn bad every day? I am tired of going to my yearly checkup and my doc saying: oh, you are fine, just take your magnesium, do moderate exercise and don't worry. Ha, easy for you to say, you don't know how miserable I actually am!

[@AlexandraZe]

Yes, it is mild. But my doc told me I also have a mild tricuspid regurgitation, plus my mitral valve is "balooned". Usually the baloon form keeps coming and going, she says she saw that with my valve. My doc is sweet and she always reassures me it's ok, but last night I couldn't sleep at all because my heart was going wild for hours. Been like this for a few days and it's exhausting. Even my metoprolol wasn't helping. I get this when I feel extreme anxiety, but I usually cannot understand if I have anxiety due to my mvp or my mvp symptoms get worse due to anxiety. My doc is the best one in town, but she's not helping me too much... Thank you for the reply.

[@AlexandraZe]

And yes, I have an echo every year, my last one was in november 2016.

[@katerinag9512]

Alexandra Zeres Are you able to exercise or go on long trips (on airplane)?

[@AlexandraZe]

No... I can exercise when I feel good, but right after exercise I start feeling bad, many palps and tachycardia. And I have never been on longer than 2 h flights, I am very scared of those..

[@AlexandraZe]

I donțt think they do the 14 day ecg in my country, there was just the Holter which revealed very few pvcs and my doc said everything looks fine. According to my medical report, is 31. A year ago it was 29 and 2 years ago- 30. I think it's millmeters, I am not sure. Should I ask for an echo durin exercise?

[@personincognito3989]

@@kiezzjang301 just saw this 2 years later. First surgery I was 5 and have no shortness of breath after. however, Since they didn't fix the cleft in the Mitral valve back in the sixties, the cleft calcified and leak ( reguritation) slowly became worse. Unbeknown to me. I went into Atrial fibrillation in 2012. They did a cardiac work up and discovered a large mitral valve leak. Then, 50 years after my first surgery I had OHS again. This time they put a cloth ring on the mitral valve so it will close. But I have atrial fib still. So ya, still short of breath.

Nice video explanation of keyhole heart surgery; the repeated emphasis on mitral valve disease is important. With the elimination of any discussion of the Mitra Clip this seems more like an ad for keyhole surgery vs. not going on the pump with a clip.

Been tested for Mitral valve leakage for the last five -six years. The doctor is just monitoring every two years on echocardiogram the leakage is moderate to severe but he said the heart is not enlarged to the scale that needs operation. But I'm constantly worried about it as I hear even the leakage goes whoosh whoosh whoosh. For palpitation he gives me better blocker. I'm just wondering if I should see another cardio for another opinion.❤

[@Thekeyholeheartclinic]

It is important to know that your palpitations are not atrial fibrillation. Also in borderline cases of mitral leak it is worth considering an exercise echo. Second opinions are always valuable.

I was told today I now have 2 leaky valves idk which the other valve is, but again was told it’s mild and not to worry even though I’ve had symptoms (fatigue, lightheadedness, palpitations and now Afib) I’ve never had swelling of my ankles and I’m a healthy weight but have higher cholesterol than my pcp would like, after watching your video I’m wondering why with my symptoms my cardiologist hasn’t suggested treatment? Should I get a second opinion? Or is it ok to just monitor it for a while even with these symptoms? Thanks.

Sorry that you are troubled. A second opinion is always valuable to review your echo and to examine the true nature and treatment options for the AF. Stress echo to examine what happens to the valves on exercise would be valuable. Hope this helps.

Be healed in Jesus name. Tell Jesus about it every day and he will definitely heal you from it. Though u might think you come from a poor family but the lord your God isn’t poor he’s rich in all things.

Sir... I did the ECG test earlier this week and it showed left ventricular hypertrophy and so the doctor asked me to go for echocardiography.. The report came out normal... I don't understand.....

[@minecraftwarden9528]

Hey , ECG reports can sometime show LVH incorrectly. My ECG also showed this but when i had an echo it turned out to be MVP.

[@alexandermarbaniang8342]

What do you mean by MVP sir...

[@alexandermarbaniang8342]

Can you help me I am really concern about my health... I am sick but I do not know as to from what sickness I am suffering....

[@minecraftwarden9528]

@@alexandermarbaniang8342 hello. If the echocardiography reports are normal, you have nothing to worry about. I had something called Mitral valve prolapse , but even that's common it seems. You have nothing to worry , since your echo report is normal. It must be your anxiety, which you can control. Don't worry.

[@minecraftwarden9528]

@@alexandermarbaniang8342 don't worry , since ECG reports can show LVH even if you don't have it , that's why doctors recommend to take echo to confirm. Since your echo report is normal , there's nothing wrong with your heart , and you can enjoy your life 🧬.

Where are you from

[@CelestialTrailblazer]

I accidentally damaged my heart by lifting a 90lbs item using my left hand to put inside a car trunk. From then on I have MVP and regurgitation, chest pain, palpitations and shortness of breath. I'm only 27. Been suffering from almost a year. Not sure how long I have until its game over.

[@chrisadamcometa8272]

It can be fixed through valve repair or replacement

[@joman388]

I do not think one can damage the mitro valve lifting heavy. Why are you not scheduled for heart surgery? thanks

[@CelestialTrailblazer]

@@joman388 Doctors in the medical field consider MVP in general a non-emergency issue unless the patient reaches a point when they require surgery. I have MVP with mild regurgitation and mild tricuspid and trace pulmonic regurgitation. All probably, either caused by over exertion since I used to be a weightlifter or from shoveling snow for hours in frigid temperatures or from post cov!d damage. I had zero symptoms until April 2021. I used to always put my body under a lot of stress. I used to always push my body to an absolute limit. Especially when it comes to weightlifting, exercising etc. I simply didn't know the impact it could have on my heart over time. The human heart is very fragile. It is possible, because of the intense physical stress, I eventually damaged my heart valve. Another possibility could be it was cov!d that damaged my heart valve and altered my heart's electrical system. Prior to all of this, I had zero pre-existing condition related to my heart. Also, there is zero family history of heart disease.

[@joman388]

@@CelestialTrailblazer Thanks ,I have heavy regurgitation and was fine up until likely a few years ago.Mine is likely from marfans syndrome {,long limbs,fingers and tall .} I have never heard that extreme exercise would or could cause such,My question to you would be did you take steroids or drugs that allowed you to ignore your tiredness easier? I am 67 years old and likely getting crack open in a month or so,something to look forward to,but a necessary chance for normal life.The answer to this is always be ready to meet the Lord Jesus as that is sooner or later.thanks

[@CelestialTrailblazer]

@@joman388 I appreciate your response and to answer your question, no, I wasn't taking anything. I was an all-natural weightlifter/body builder. There are several ways you can damage your heart valve or have a damaged heart valve: 1)Virus 2)Over-exertion (ie: Lifting too heavy, too much cardio and or high intensity physical activities) 3) Born with MVP since birth 4) Pregnancy (Rare) 5) Heart Inflammation 6) Obesity 7) Sleeping on your belly after a heavy meal 8 ) Years of heart rhythm problems 9) Tumor 10) Post-surgical complications I probably had the combination of 1, 2, 7 and 5

Hi can i ask what does it mean. I go to hospital for 2D ECHO. IM 40YRS OLD. I cannot understand .. any doctor can reply to explain this? Thanks and god bless RESULT OF 2D ECHO INTERPRETATION: Normal left venticular size and wall thickness; there is adequate wall motion and contractility Normal right venticular size With good systolic function; TAPSE of 2.19cm Normal left and right atria Thickened anterior mitral valve leaflet without restriction of motion Normal aortic and tricuspid valve with good opening and closing motion Pulmonic valve is not clearly visualized Normal aortic root and main pulmonary artery No evidence of pericardial effusion or thrombus DOPPLER: Normal mitral inflow pattern Trivial mitral,tricuspid and pulmonic regurgitations Normal pulmonary artery perssure (PASP of 26 mmHg by TR jet) CONCLUSION: NORMAL LEFT VENTRICULAR DIMENSION ( LVMI of 85 g/m2 ; RWT of 0.38 ) with good overall systolic and diastolic functions MITRAL VALVE SCLEROSIS with TRIVIAL MITRAL REGURGITATION TRIVIAL TRICUSPID AND PULMONIC REGURGITAIONS The rest of findings are unremrkable

[@joelhuertas9934]

Believe it or not mild regurgitation is normal findings on echocardiograms. Always look for other options never let a doctor gaslight your symptoms these issues can be fix repair before you get a replacement

[@user-rv5gf6cm9p]

Please take homoeopathy medicine , that work best than modern medicine

[@trystalb]

But will that fix the mvp and leaky valves? That's easier said than done. If everyone knew what to take, they probably would have already.

I am 25yrs old, I have mild tricuspid and mitral valve regurgitation and until now I still dont why I have it and how to cure it,. I still have a lot of question in mind, I feel tired easily, I always Have chest pain and tachycardia. I dont know if its getting worse. My doctor said that its normal that I dont have to worry that we just need to watch out for it, my cardio only gave me Ivabradine 2.5mg Twice daily. every year I should do 2Decho but for 2yrs I did not do it bcoz I work in different country. Then I had my check up again with different cardio he said it's only in my mind, anxiety and depression. And he gave me bisoprolol 2.5mg tablet as needed if I have chest pain and tachycardia. My ecg reading result is I have Sinus tachycardia also I dont know if its connected..

Good question It is actually best to repair the mitral Valve as soon as rupture of the strings is diagnosed (often then causing severe leak) to avoid secondary problems

Well they can REPAIR mvp pretty easily, I had it done in October, I went back to work 5 weeks later and have walked 2 miles at a time with no issues, there was no more surgery pain after surgery than a tylenol now and then didn't take care of, after the 2nd day I didnt even need that. It was a 4 hour surgery, it all went well and was not a big deal. The thing is I HAVE insurance at work, the invoices I got from the insurance showing me the costs etc showed that the mitral valve repair and putting in a pacemaker, plus misc charges and 6 days in the hospital cost $145,000, the previous costs associated wit it all months earlier, CT scan, ecg's echo cardiogram, months on $600/mo Eliquis etc etc were about $30,000 and now finishing up twice a week rehab sessions, all told the costs were around $190,000 ALL covered by insurance, can't imagine what people who dont have insurance can do...
