Can I have mitral valve prolapse when doctor can not hear heart murmur?
Mitral valve prolapse is a very common disorder affecting about 2% of people. Having said that, many patients were told that they had mitral valve prolapse in the past when in fact they did not have it. Usually, during auscultation (listening to the heart with a stethoscope) the doctor hears a click that may or may not be followed by a heart murmur. This click is usually more pronounced in certain positions such as while lying supine with the legs raised and clenching your fists. This maneuver makes the click and the murmur more audible during examination of the patient. Findings are usually confirmed by an echocardiogram (ultrasound of the heart) READ MORE
