Hi Peter. I was just diagnosed a few days ago with MVP. I have done
a lot of research on the subject and have been very well informed by
my doctor as well. I have a lot of the symptoms that are associated
with MVP except for the fainting. I'm not sure if all MVP sufferers
experience panic attack but my doctor told me that a lot of people
that suffer with panic/anxiety disorders are more likely to have MVP.
I think a lot of the panic actually comes from the fact that you now
know what your heart is doing. From what I hear, MVP is very common
and most people can live a normal life without any treatment at all.
Hipe this helps a little bit.
