    Autumn,

    Unfortunately no one here is qualified to interpret the test results. There are a lot of "normal" written all through it and it looks like they're practicing "CYA" medicine with a visit to the cardiologist.

    Let us know what they say...

    It's the mitral & tricuspid regurgitation that's freaking me out!! I can't get calm & I can't eat. I'm in full on panic thinking I'm about to die !! I know I sound like a baby & I should get a grip on myself.

    Mitral and tricuspid regurgitation is a common finding and more than likely nothing to be concerned about. Try your best to focus on all the times this report says normal. In fact, count them out and keep that number in your head whenever you feel freaked out. You’ll speak with your cardio soon and I’m sure they’ll reassure you that you’re fine.

    Thank you for your kind reply. It's so difficult to stay calm as it was a complete surprise. I'm also dealing with other family health issues & it all gets v overwhelming.

    Competely understandable, just breathe, you’re going to be absolutely fine! You’re stronger than the fear, tell it to go somewhere and screw itself and live your life. You’re healthy, you’re not going to drop dead from some sort of heart condition, I promise you that.

    Breath easy, do whatever you can to relax. Lay down, listen to some relaxing music..whatever it takes.

    YOU. WILL. BE. FINE
