What Are The Symptoms Of Aortic Regurg In Diabetic Patient?
My 2 yr ago cardio echo showed some aortic regurg. and dr. said do nothing now. My current echo showed no aortic regurg but now shows a mitral valve leak, also to do nothing abt. Dr says I most likely have both. I am asymptomatic as far as no shortness breath, fainting, I have been diag. with 2 benign arrythmia PAC, pat. Lipids are very good. I am 65 yr female diabetic overweight on Diuril and Cozaar for BP. Should I seek 2nd opinion on this recent echo missing the aortic regurg?

Hi,
Most probably it was a trace regurgitation, that's why it was missed. Don't worry, it is not serious, it will cause no harm and symptoms, one may live for decades without any problem with mild mitral and aortic regurgitation.
Take care
