Product Description
In the United States alone, over ten million people--many of them women and young adults--are known to suffer from the heart condition known as Mitral Valve Prolapse Syndrome (MVPS). Countless others 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.

This book is great for anyone with symptomatic Mitral Valve Prolapse. It is like the nurse writing this book can read my mind. It has tips on how to control symptoms without meds.

This book, discovered some years ago while I was suffering (unknowingly) from MVPS, explained so many things which had happened in my life. It led to my visiting the MVP Center in Birmingham, AL (the author was one of the founders), which resulted in my condition being understood. And treated. And I have been able to live my life sort of "happily ever after", which I was not able to do at the time.

This book gave me hope!

I recommend this book to anyone who has been diagnosed or thinks they may have MVP. Lyn Fredrickson takes a rational approach and gives practical, medically sound advice for the person with MVP. After reading this book, I knew I was not dying, and I wasn't crazy. Ms. Fredrickson assured me my symptoms were real, and gave me hope for a life unchained from those symptoms. Don't pay any attention to the reader from State College, PA. They obviously did not read this book. Judge for yourself!

solid book

First and only book on MVP I have read. Read it while my heart was jumping out of my chest, on the road 2,400 miles from home. Have suffered "palpitations" for 20 years that doctors never have diagnosed. This book just hit home with things I have been feeling for a very long time. Turns out my mother has MVP. I feel this book helped me very much to feel better about what I "may" have. It gave me a lot of useful info on what to do. It is a basic AMA approach and discourse.

not worth the paper it is printed on

this book pokes fun at people with MVP and MVPS. the author spends too much time on her so called "neuroses" in people with MVP and MVPS. after reading this book i am convinced that the author wrote it only to convince people with MVP and MVPS that their physical condition is basically all in their head. this is just another book that victimizes the victom of a difficult to deal with medical disorder. also, book is very out dated, and very much the opinion of the author not at all any real medicine in this book. spend some more money on a more recent book on MVP and MVPS.
