Since I was 14 I've had a mitral valve problem but never was of much concern. I am currently 45. Now the doctor wants to do another echo in 6 months to see the change in the calcification, also I do not seem to have any symptom either. This has made me alot more concerned , should I be ? Is there anything I can change diet , exercise, vitamins and what is this caused from? Thank you Jackie I just learned I have mitral valve calcification from a recent echo test.
