Luthien,

Endocarditis is the big concern here. But when having a medical
proceedure if you have MVP there are anesthetic medication concerns.
If you have an irritable nervous system affecting your MVP then
recieving novicaine with ephenephrine could be dangerous. You can ask
for Novicane without ephinephrine. Also Nitrous Oixde gas has shown
bad heart racing affects in some people that are succeptable (like me
lol) so you can ask for another med. to put you to sleep without an
adrenaline stimulating affect. You should probably take antibotics
before the surgery. Good luck.
