I got a copy (transcription report) of my 1-9-03 echo and found that the hypertrophy was left ventricular. Also the report indicates thickening of the mitral valve leaflet, mitral valve annular calcification, mitral regurgitation and tricuspid reguritation. I have stopped my tropol and norvac. My heart rate really increased, which I called my doctor's nurse who said this was normal when getting off tropol. My resting heart rate is in the high 90's and 100's upon excertion. Also experiencing PVC's, I will be seeing a new cardiologist at Wake Forest on December 4 to see if I need another echo and what meds I should be on.
Thanks for all the advice from this forum and keep up the good work. All of you are wonderful people for providing support and updated medical treatment. I will post results of my visist. Again keep up the good work.
