Answer 1

My dear friend, am touched by ur plight, I only wish I had some personal contact with u so i can monitor ur progress.
There's no problem under heaven that have no solution under heaven. Its important for u 2 understand that God who created did not design u to bear abt sickness, disease or infirmities. Imagine every manufacturer has provision for spares in case there's a malfunction, even so God has made adequate provision for ur healing just in case you fall ill.
From Biblical Scriptures I understand that Healing is possible and is still happening, for it is written By the stripes of Jesus Christ we are made whole.
There is wht we call communion or Lord supper ( simply ordinary bread & fruit jiuce) symbolizing the Flesh & Blood of Jesus christ, when u take this with the understanding that its for ur total health, God's intergrity is committed to ur healing, and before u know it, you will notice strength, Health and life returning to ur body again. (1 Cor. 11:23-30)
There is also the anointing, which is simply Olive oil, which if u will care to buy and pray over and apply this with a sense of responsibility, it promises to destroy the yoke of satan the author of sickness & diseases and free ur body from its afflictions (james 5:14).
you are too young to bear any burden of sickness.
you shall know the truth and the truth u know shall set u free says the good Lord.
Total health is ur portion in Jesus name. Amen.

Answer 2

I was diagnosed when I was 18 after my first child was born. It has gotten progressively worse as I age but I have never been on meds for it. Doctors generally think your full of crap when you try to tell them that it causes you problems. They want to make you belive its all in your head. At least.. most docs I have seen do. I find certain foods, drinks, and stress make mine feel much worse than it is and when I get to that point it usually takes me a couple days to get back on track. Those of us who are MVP are really hopeing that someone somewhere will belive how bad it makes us feel and consider it a real problem with the quality of life. Good luck to you and I hope your problem is resolved very soon. I would love to know how things turn out for you.

Answer 3

I have MVP as well, 3 of the 4 valves in my heart don't open and close properly. I don't take the medication they gave me for it because it causes my brain aneurysm to start bleeding again. I would talk to your doctor about changing your meds. There are a few different choices out there you can try and if one doesn't work, try another one. Good luck.
