I phoned my gp this morning to ask whether there was any news regarding my ultrasound l had in November. She said my ECG was normal and the ultrasound showed that my regurgitation diagnosed in 2014 was still the same and had not got any worse. I’m still getting discomfort in my upper chest mainly when I’m cold or after l have been for instance doing gardening. gp is going to pass my results to a cardiologist and he/she will arrange a telephone consultation. She also said cardiologist will probably arrange an MRI. She said not to worry as things dont look urgent but of course l do worry. In the meantime I’m to have a 24 monitor to see if anything shows up. Fortunately l don’t get breathless just this very uncomfortable feeling high up in my chest
