Book excerpt: This title is also a section found in the book titled: "Common Murmurs, Arrhythmias and Myopathies of the Heart," with this resource being made available to readers specficially interested in the Mitral Valve rolapse Syndrome subject. DECSRIPTION OF THIS TITLE: Mitral Valve Prolapse is a heart murmur found commonly in the general public and can cause heart palpitations, orthostatic hypotension (dizziness upon standing), other symptoms of an imbalanced nervous system and anxiety/panic symptoms. Medical Research studies have found it to be even more common in thyroid disease patients, especially those with autoimmune types of thyroid disorders. It is also believed to be about 5 times more common in females than in males. Many people with MVP do not experience symptoms while those who do are termed as having "MVP-Syndrome." The condition can also cause an imbalance in the "involuntary nervous system" (dysautonomia) and has been associated with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome in some patients who have it. This book can help to provide the reader with a general education regarding the symptoms, diagnosis and treatment of this very common "click heart murmur." This book (approx. 7,590 words in length) is not intended to be an extensive medical manual but contains information most often sought by laypersons on the subject. CONTENTS: CHAPTER ONE: How MVP-Syndrome May Manifest CHAPTER TWO: Basics about Mitral Valve Prolapse Syndrome CHAPTER THREE: More about MVP Symptoms CHAPTER FOUR: More about Orthostatic Hypotension CHAPTER FIVE: More about Treament for Mitral Valve Prolapse CHAPTER SIX: Strong Association of Thyroid Disease to MVP CHAPTER SEVEN: Book Review: MVPS-Dysautonomia Survival Guide CHAPTER EIGHT: MVP a Medical cause of Anxiety Symptoms CHAPTER NINE: Coping with MVP-caused Panic Attacks and Severe Anxiety Episodes

Book excerpt: Mitral Valve Prolapse Syndrome (MVPS) took medical journalist Joan Anderson on the most frightening ride of her life. A mild flutter in her chest escalated to a living hell. Sick, scared, confused, and alone, she battled a wide range of symptoms. Faced with chest pains, arrhythmias, migraines, stroke-like symptoms, irritable bowel syndrome, blood pressure spikes, fibromyalgia, anxiety and extreme fatigue, Anderson ultimately took matters into her own hands. Determined to regain her health, she developed a personal action plan after receiving little to no help from the medical community. Rather than accept drugs that would mask her symptoms and elevate her health risks, Anderson faced down her fears and took control. Searching outside the usual protocols, and leaving uncaring doctors behind, Anderson unearthed new information and better, more effective treatments not only for her MVPS symptoms but also for the symptoms of what she calls the MVPS "Sister Syndromes," Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome/Myalgic Encephalomyelitis ME/CFS.In My Personal Action Plan for Stopping the Symptoms of Mitral Valve Prolapse Syndrome-Dysautonomia, Anderson shares the methods that changed her life. The text details her research and provides helpful resources for others taking the same journey. Anderson, an award-winning medical reporter and healthcare system administrator, recounts the 5 Patient Principles she developed to help her effectively navigate the medical system. "Even though I have had experience researching medical issues in the past," she writes, "I am still an MVPS patient, not a medical professional. If I can research and find answers that helped me, anyone can." Please Note: The author has no underlying structure or functional problems with her heart. She was diagnosed with Mitral Valve Prolapse when a physician noted a benign click as her heart's mitral valve closed. The author has what is called Mitral Valve Prolapse Syndrome-Dysautonomia, a problem with the autonomic nervous system.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a readily-accessible, easy-to-read format, this book presents useful hints, suggestions, anecdotes and lists that will help you to look within, identify, and ultimately achieve your personal and professional goals. From getting started with the actual physical space that is your office to the incorporation and financial establishment of your practice, to dealing with the most unexpected, unpredictable clients and their expectations and to planning for the unexpected, the answers are here. The straightforward "hands-on" approach makes reading simple, the inclusion of anecdotes adds realism and interest, the quick checks provide instant reminders and cues and the self-disclosure questions aid in self-understanding. All of the suggestions are grounded in practice. Some may be familiar to you already; some may be novel and unexpected. Sometimes, however, simple reminders or hints can be the most powerful and with that in mind, this book was written in an attempt to demystify some of the confusion and/or uncertainty surrounding the successful establishment and functioning of a private practice.
