I suspect that you have mild valvular regurgitation that should be of no worry to you. Many patients who have echocardiograms done have mild valve regurgitation of more than one valve and have entirely normal hearts. Since you have continued to have only mild valve regurgitation over 13 years, I suspect that you have a normal heart and that your degree of regurgitation is within the normal range. Thus, I think you should check with your own cardiologist again to confirm my thoughts, but I think you should have a good prognosis. I hope you find this information useful.
