Hi Janie-

I will be 44 in a week and a half, have mitral valve prolapse in addition to FMS

and low thyroid. At the ER they gave me an ekg and complete blood work up for

anything heart related, as well as electrolytes - those tests all showed normal.

I have an echo every couple of years for the MVP - in fact I guess I'm due for

one. Next time I see my doc I'll ask her about it.

Thanks,

It pro is the heat. I dont know how old you are and it really doesnt

matter but has your doctor checked your heart. So many women are not

checked for heart prob and it is the number one killer now. I would

insist on a heart echo not just an ekg if it keeps up. Janie

Thanks for the feedback Janie. Does your neice swell up now even when she stays

out of the heat? I seem to be swelling now just from being on my feet. All

this in a matter of a week and a half. Now I'm sorta scared of what's going to

happen when I go back to work on Monday - mail carrier in a 120 degree truck. I

bought some mild compression knee highs at Wal Mart yesterday - maybe they will

help. Seems like every month it's something new. Hey - at least today seems to

be a good pain day!!
