Hi All,
Following a recent visit to St Thomas', I've received my copy of the update Dr D'Cruz sends my GP & Rhuemy. Along with my ever increasing list of diagnosis, there was a note about my ECG showing 'mild thickening of the mitral valve'. When Dr D'Cruz mentioned this in my appointment, he was quite dismissive of this but I am keen to understand what it is and if there is anything I can do to prevent it worsening, etc. I've read a bit on the internet but rfeaked myself out a bit so wondered if anyone else has this and can offer any advise?
Thanks as always,
Amanda
