Does anyone know or have seen information regarding PVC's and mitral regurgitation if there is any link between the two. Just curious. My echo showed mild regurgitation but no prolapse, and a holter monitor showed some PVC's. My doctor said they are normal.
Thanks for any info you may have.

Hi......PVC's and MVP go together. I just had open heart surgery to repair my mitral valve in April and have had no PVC's since. I was on medication to control the PVC,s for years. I was on Atenolol and seemd to work great controling them. My heart was beginning to enlarge so we thought it was the right time to have it repaired. Talk to yur Dr about meds to control them if they bug you too much. I could feel every PVC but after being prescribed Atenolol it really helped. Good Luck Melba
