hello,i have gone through your query.Thanks for using HCM.
In majority of cases Mitral valve prolapse is benign condition unless it is having leakage of the valve i.e. mitral valve regurgitation.Depending on severity of regurgitation one can decide need of surgery.I request you to inform me detail echo report,so that i can guide you properly,
my best wishes
