I have mitral valve prolapse, too. I found out in my early 20's and have taken the proper precautions since, ie; antibiotics when I get my teeth cleaned and always tell the nurse when you are going to have surgery so they can give you antibiotics, etc.

Anyway, it is a pretty benign condition. I also suffered from dizzy spells when I was on Herceptin. It got to the point where I felt like I was always at the docs or having a scan. It will and it does get better.

Stay strong.
