Echo report confusing

Got a confusing echo report concerning the Mitral valve,
Mistral valve area 2.6(normal is 4-6) mine was 3.6 in 2021.
But the report reads “ mold mitral thickening, no mitral valve stenosis even though the 2.6 is well below the normal and trending down fast

  1. I am not surprised you are confused!. Your test results indicate that there is something going on, but it isn't clear what that is. If you haven't already, please talk this over with your doctor or a cardiologist. They should be willing to talk over the results and create a plan for you going forward, which may include things like diet, exercise, etc.) Here are some questions you can ask. Remember, you are not alone, and receiving a diagnosis can be frightening. Warmly, Kathy (Team member)
