[|Human|] My husband is 65 years old, 178 lbs, 6. Has been diagnosed w/MVP. Had stress tests and heart pics and ultra sound. Dr. gave him Ramipril 2.5mg to start taking and he is taking them. He is not swelling in ankles, heart is strong, not having severe shortness of breath and is VERY active. Dr. said will watch valve for now and do nothing. However, he is having more frequent irregular heart beats & dizziness when he gets up from sitting. When we go cycling he may start having palipitations, but after a while it subsides w/the exercise. So is there anything more he can do when the palipitations last a long time? Certain exercises? An asprin? What if anything can can he do to help them subside? He is also taking Viagra, does that conflict with his medicine and condition?
[|AI|]  Hello and thank you for using Chat Doctor. I carefully read your question and I understand your concern. As your doctor has already told you, you should not worry about mitral valve prolapse. If TNE valve does not have any regurgitation, leakage than you should nor work, you just have to control it once a wile. It is known in cardiology that people that has prolapse experience heart palpitations or escaped beata, but these are not risky. You mentioned viagra.it is also known that palpitation might be a side effect of Viagra. So, my opinion is that if palpitation happen once a while you should not worry. If that start to interfere in your husbands daily liver than I would advise stopping Viagra and have a holder rhythm monitoring to evaluate rhythm tendency during day and night. After holder we can judge what we are dealing with and if it is significant to treat it medical or not. Hope I was helpfulness regards, Chat Doctor.
