Aortic Regrugation
About 3 years back, during a routine check up, I was advised to see a cardiologist who confirmed a minor issue of arotic regrugation but did not prescribe any medication or procedure. He said I need to monitor ever year. Symptoms I feel are faintness (sometimes though) when I lift myself after bending or get up after sitting on floor. This happens for couple of seconds. What test would you recommend I do? How can this be corrected.
