I hope that I am not taking up to much of your time. Thank you for answering my questions. The pain syndrome of MVP is highly variable from patient to patient and time to time, seems not to be related to anything and obviously is poorly understood and quite bothersome to patients. At present the only thing we have good treatment for is the MR that develops in some patients, but there is hope since many different drugs are being studied on pain syndromes. I hope you find this information useful.
