I'm a bit confused about my recent echo reports. The first one mentioned mild MR and MVP, but when I went to another hospital for a second opinion, they only found mild MR, no MVP. What should I do next? Should I be concerned about this discrepancy?

To confirm the presence of mitral valve prolapse (MVP), it is important to have a thorough evaluation by a cardiologist. In the meantime, for mild mitral regurgitation (MR), you can take medication like Losartan 50mg once daily to help manage the condition. It is also important to follow up with your cardiologist for further evaluation and management.

I'm still dealing with chest pain whenever I talk loudly or shout, especially when I'm angry. It starts spreading and only eases when I lie down or someone rubs my back. Even climbing stairs brings on the pain. I've had all the tests, including a CT Angio, and everything came back normal, with the cardiologist saying there's no heart issue. But this problem isn't going away. I'm feeling really confused about what steps to take next. Should I consider getting a more in-depth check-up or maybe visit a bigger hospital?
