i just had a echocardiagram done and it showed that i had mild to moderate regurgitation of some valve dont know what kind it was anyway the doctor does not want to see me for a year and then he will do another echocardiagram on my heart to keep an eye on it.
Hello, It means you have got a valve problem, mostly it's a mitral valve and it's been leaking, it's not functioning properly. It is usually a progressive disease and may lead to symptoms like shortness of breath. Doctor wants to keep an eye on it, just to monitor its severity and when it becomes severe and start damaging your heart, he'll advice for valve repair or replacement surgery. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
