Re: Mitral Valve Prolapse & Thyroid Disease

[Guest guest]

Thanks . I had made the connection for myself, which was confirmed by my cardiologist, but had not read this information. My cardiologist attributed my cold sweats and faint feelings to my low thyroid, as well as the stress I was feeling trying to get help. If you have MPV and your thyroid is low, you are certain to have these symptoms.

Thank you for posting this. I have MVP and have dizzy periods sometimes so bad I can not lift my head off the bed. I was really getting concerned about them. Most of the time I just have really fast dizzy spells where I have to grab something to keep from falling over, (don't know that I would, just feels like it). Since I have had the thyroid cancer, I couldn't help but fear a brain tumor or something. I have asked my edo about it and he said he didn't think it anything to do with my thyroid.

I have not even read the links that you posted yet, I was just so excited that someone addressed this and it could be what is going on with me.

Now I will go back and do some reading

Thanks again,

Could this be the dizziness and tiredness some still experience, even when being adequately treated. I knew that MPV was certainly possible with thyroid disorders, but I really didn't realize just how prevalent it is and why. Lots of links to show just how prevalent.
