About Me (In My Own Words)
I am 35 years old, and was diagnosed with severe mitral valve regurgitation in July of 2021. So far, I am asymptomatic. The MR was found incidentally through a heart murmur. My cardiologist has told me that at this point, it is reasonable to either wait on the surgery and closely monitor the regurgitation, or have surgery now. She said that I will likely have to have the surgery in 1-5 years. I am grateful for this site and everyone who has shared their stories, as I work through all the decision-making around this.
