i went to the heart doc today to get the results from an echocardiogram and he told me i had two leakages in one of the valves of my heart. i dont know why, but i didnt even bother to ask him exactly what that meant because he told me it was nothing to worry about. can anyone tell me more about this?
Hum...it depends how bad your leakage is. If it causes too much blood to flow in the wrong direction it could cause an enlarged heart. What lead up to you having an echocardiogram? My son has has epstines malformation of the tricuspid valve and it caused leakage. It depends on the level of the leakage. It can be a big issue but obviously your leakages are small and nothing to be concerned with? I would def. call him and get some clarification....
