Suggest Treatment For Intermittent Heart Palpitations

I am a 23 year old female. I have beene getting intermittent heart palpitations, but am otherwise healthy. My mom was diagnosed with mitral valve prolapse. A cardiologist listened to my heart and didn't hear a murmur or clicking but is sending me to get an ECG just to be safe. I had a chest xray last year and it was fine. What are the chances I may have MVP?

Hi,

To get all your answers do an ECHO cardiography of your heart.
Its basically like an ultrasound and is done in approximately 10 minutes.

Regards.
