Hello Sir
MVP diagnosed in the early stages is not much of a problem. Once the disease progresses maybe 1 or 2 decades later then it might require surgery which is the definitive treatment.rest, the medicines that you have been taking are not specific for this disease entity but if you are feeling good after taking them then you can continue doing so
