Filled with helpful advice and thoughtful guidance, this groundbreaking book has helped thousands of doctors and patients understand one of the world's most common health conditions.

In the United States alone, over ten million people-many of them women and young adults-are known to have a heart condition known as Mitral Valve Prolapse Syndrome (MVPS). Countless people with chest pains, fatigue, dizziness, depression, migraines, or anxiety attacks are totally unaware that symptoms may be MVPS related or even that MVPS is treatable.

Whether you suspect you have MVPS or have already been diagnosed, this "outstanding" guide will give you the context, support, and knowledge you need to manage symptoms of the nation's most common cardiac condition (H. Cecil Coghlan, M.D, FACP, Professor, University of Alabama).
