Mitral valve problems fairly common in women,most do not require intervention.Fast heart rate with normal EKG may be anxiety.Try to relax-both of you.

I’m confused as to how they saw her heart doing an abdominal US that would lead them to be concerned about a cardiac issue. Sometimes if a valve leaks too much or is too stenotic it can lead to arrhythmias but I doubt that’s the case here unless they mentioned a murmur. Possibly just some sort of little arrhythmia picked up on EKG that’s more than likely not a big deal but further testing will give y’all some clarity. If she does not have any significant symptoms ( SOB, decrease in exercise tolerance, rapid HR, CP), the likelihood of something significant is pretty low, although not impossible. Hope everything turns out ok.
