Thanks, I am soldier bd army, I am affected myocardial bridge plz sazzed me

My wife had no symptom episode so far at 60yro. She just done her first heart CT last week found mild MB in dLAD. Plus moderate to severve sofl plaque at proximal LAD suggesting clinical attention +/- PCI. What your comment?

I. Have this problem too. I wish you the best

I would like to refer you to Dr. Roger Elmer in Las Vegas, Nevada. He is amazing!

Post mortems suggest that up to 40% of people have a myocardial bridge.

I was just diagnosed this week with Myocardial Bridge. I am experiencing extreme shortness of breath after the angiogram & before too. I was experiencing spams back to back out of the blue & sharp pains.. It has affected my tastebuds or my pallet. I do not have an appetite to eat at all What can you share helpful with me about this Good for you that you got your life back!

God bless you, be praying for you.

Update us… i hope you are alive and doing well

hi in your case i see a cut mark on your chest can u say why is that

Stanford where???

I am extremely sorry to hear about your tough journey!!!!! I too suffer from this disease and it’s extends painful and life affecting! I’ve been doing some research and found another person who cured his myocardial bridge. See link: ruclips.net/video/EqPOSB0p0lE/видео.html I hope his journey helps you all: I will Attempt to do the same Godbless everyone and I’ll keep Praying for a better cure than invasive surgery

I used to smoke for 25 years, I attributed all my symptoms to that. Just found out about my bridge after heart attack symptoms brought me to the ER. They did EKG and Cath and found it. Thankfully no plaque. Thanks for posting this. I hope you know Jesus, praise His name.

I was just diagnosed who is having a bridge today I've been having chest pain jaw pain very fatigued the doctor put me on a beta blocker or something like that today the doctor act like it would be okay but this makes me worry I hope you get better

I wish I would seen this video before April 13th. I hope you’re doing well, and you’re healthy. Praying for everyone fighting with their doctors for more testing! Especially, for those whose doctors didn’t believe your loved one until after they’re dead.

Thank you so much for this!!! I have been on 5 different medications for my bridge with no luck:( my cardiologist here is referring me to Stanford for the unroofing! A year ago when they mentioned this might be a possibility I was terrified! But now having the feeling like I have a knife between my shoulder blades and inability to get deep breaths all day I am ready!! So glad I clicked on your video, I go to Stanford in April and now can’t wait!! Thanks

Hi I have been dealing with this on top of Coronary Artery Disease. My LAD was blocked 80% and needed to be stented. After the stent was placed I was still having the chest pain and in the same place and was recathed 2 days after my initial heart cath. That's when they found out that I had the MB.They told me we would have to try to medically manage it first and then if it couldn't be managed this way then the only other option would be surgey. Well I am ready for surgery. I have 2 stents in that area and it is very tight and have been trying different medications which haven't helped now for almost 2 years. I get my chest pain and shortness of breath , palpitations, i get pre-syncopal episodes so often now. All of which have increased significantly over the last couple of months. I was just admitted the other day into the hospital because of severe chest pain etc. I am hoping that I can be seen at Cleveland Clinic and have the surgery done and that it will bring relief. I have done some research and they recommended the surgery over stenting in people that have blockage because it would cause more issues. Thank you for sharing your story with us.

This is real. My dad has it and no one knew. Years he said something was wrong and they kept sending him home saying panic attack. They found it last week finally.

I tried to find Paul on Facebook but could not, my 19-year-old son was just diagnosed with a myocardial bridge, would like to talk to Paul….??…..

Hello, everyone. I’ve an myocardial bridge which is 15mm and complete. I’ve an CT Angiography. They said there is no blockage in vein and no meaningful narrow between systole and diastole. After that I’ve done Nuclear stress test. Nuclear stress test resulted, there is no problem with blood flow to my heart. But I’m still having symptoms. I’ve pressure on my left shoulder and there is a numbness on my left hand. Sometimes I feel, numbness on left side of my jaw. In a day life, when I stand and slow-walking, I feel painful pressure on my chest, 4-4.5 over 10. In addition to that, I feel dizzy while I’m standing. I’m a little fatigue in a day, can’t find energy to do exercises. I’m living in Istanbul/Turkey. I got contacted with one of the best cardiologist in Turkey and his name is Afksendiyos Kalangos. I showed my reports and he said not to worry about my myocardial bridge because reports show that, I’m not feeling these thing because of MB. But why I’m having these symptoms?

Hi Steph, How you doing now, can u tell me about the symptoms

Hi Paul, thank you for sharing your story. I couldn't find you on Facebook. Could you tell me the name of the doctor you sent your records to? Thank you! Nancy

Has anyone found this Paul I want to message he about some info!!

Hi Alessio - thanks for sharing your story. How are you doing these days? what other treatment did you have since this was posted. I got MC (1st noted 10 years ago age 44 but no one really knew what it was nor did it have a name) but my symptoms went away so i just carried on as normal.. last 6 months i got new symptoms (dull chest pain / and a hard thud to my heart when running about 3 months back / and the odd heart spasm). Today the cardiologist i went to says i have MC and my symptoms may be a result of this - so i am started on some medication for the next month to monitor. Great i now know what it is called so i can do more research on it. Hope the medicine works but it seems like long term 'unroofing' may be the answer. Still early days of investigation. Hope you are doing well. GRAZIE

thanks for sharing the experience - much appreciated.. My MC (didnt have a name back then) got discovered about 10yrs ago in Singapore (i was 42 then) via a angiogram and they really werent sure what it was / how to treat etc other than a complicated artery swap out and there wasnt enough evidence to determine if that was the cause of my 'out of breath' while running only 400metres (i do a lot of running). i was in a really stressful job back then so i fortunately was able to step out of work and retired and the stress went away and everything went back to normal after a few months... over the last 18 months i have been getting very minimal dull chest pain now and then. 3 months ago at the 15km mark on a trail run i got a real sharp thud pain from my heart/chest and i recall a few sudden spasms while in bed over the past few months too. I had all the tests done (ECG/xray/blood etc) and everything normal so just took some muscle relaxants for a few weeks. Its not really improved much (and the dull chest pain seems more frequent) over that time and had the basic re-tests done etc. Today i met with a really good cardiologist (i now live in Thailand) who finally gave me that name of Myocardial Bridge so i can start doing more online research. Today i start on some medicine for a month and see if that helps manage it - hopefully yes - but it is nice to be able to zoom in with more knowledge on what the issue is likely and seems if some form of surgery is needed that hopefully it is 'unroofing' as opposed to a full artery swap out.. I am still running and cycling and playing tennis a lot - so i probably need to tone some of that down while i sort this stuff out... interested to hear if anyone else has very similar symptoms and actions they are taking.. much appreciated... cheers

Thank you so much for this vid!!

Thats good, u r living a normal life, I also had the same issue and recently 2 days ago I was diagnosed the same problem, it's 3 cm long, I am taking medicine

Hi Paul! I had a cath done yesterday only to confirm i have a myocardial bridge. Surgery scares me. What helped with your decision to opt for it

For my treatment

what type of procedure do you do you have I listened to your whole video but I did not hear you talk about it I was looking at the myotome as a treatment.. also now that it's three years later how do you feel about it how does your sternum feel and can you exercise freely without anyting

I just found out that's what's been plaguing me for 20 years I'm 46 years old and have been exercising my whole life I even did the ultimate beast Spartan race but occasionally I get ischemia that won't go away I think it's more stress related but after a soccer game this Saturday I didn't EKG done at work which showed ischemia the called the cardiologists sent me to Cath Lab and that's when they discovered my LAD was being squeezed because it was running under my muscle tissue. For years I always thought there was something mechanically wrong with my heart sometimes when I was doing things I felt like I just could not get it to get going

IT IS REAL BROTHER - I HAVE THE SAME THING BUT HAVE DONE NOTHING WITH MINE // GOD BLESS. YOUR POST AND RESPONSES HAVE SHOWN ME I AM NOT ALONE. I WAS THINKING I WAS ONE OF FEW AND WOW// SO MANY OF US OUT THERE.

God bless you Stephanie! I hope you get surgery soon! I have talked to a person who had surgery and he said he felt like a new man! Said his energy level went through the roof!

Hi paul, thank you for sharing this with us. i am 54 yrs old and i knew that since i was 12 that something wrong with me. I always felt anxious but in my early late 30's had the "anxiety" attacks. went multiple times to the ER. finally when to ER on when i turned 50 was hospitilized for 2 days and bc i am an RN they brought in a cardiologist did an angiogram on me but still did not find anything. I was released and had a cardiac catherization and that is how they discovered. i had all the symptoms you had , shortnes of breath, dizziness, neck spasms which my cardiologist said i just had to live with and they were so painful. but thank God for you sharing bc most of the cardiologist in NY or cardiologist period don't know much about how to treat this. which dr did you send your record to at stanford and which Paul giordano are you bc there are two on face book

I've been suffering with Myocardial Bridging since 2014. It's one of the worst issues I've ever faced in my life let alone the uphill battle with cardiologists along the way. I personally went to Standford to have openheart surgery for it and unfortunately, it did not work. I am still having issues to this day. I will admit that for a year after I felt like I was doing a little better but I ended up having pericarditis and pleurisy which put me back in the hospital. I had one of my worst episodes ever the other night and had an ambulance come take me to the ER at 1am. I lay on the ground gasping for air and clutching my chest as a family member called 911. For anyone who suffers from this, my heart goes out to you and especially to this woman above who knows exactly what this horrible heart defect brings.

Paul, I had the same exact surgery you had at Stanford. I flew to California in 2018 and had my unroofing procedure done. Unfortunately I’m still having symptoms to this day and I’m just curious have you had any symptoms whatsoever or are you completely healed? Any detailed info you can give me would be great. I can say that I was told I had multiple bridges but the main larger one was deemed the issue. They explained I had endothelial dysfunction from that artery loosing its elasticity over the years and could be the cause of my current pain. I’m glad you felt better after the procedure. Again, any updates would be appreciated. Are you still doing well, completely pain free or do you have issues from time to time?

I went to Stanford in 2018 and had this surgery for Myocardial Bridging. Unfortunately, it did not help. While I was down there they also diagnosed 2 more bridges that I had which were much smaller in size compared to the bigger one I had surgery one. I developed pericarditis and pleurisy after my surgery/returning home and was essentially bed ridden for an extra 3 months. It’s been two years and although I can say the severity isn’t as bad as it used to, I still struggle almost every day. What they told me was that I had endothelial dysfunction or in layman’s terms that my bridging had caused stress on my artery and it may have lost its elasticity just like a rubber band does. In this case, the artery walls are not smooth/flexible as they should be and vasospasm causing pain still. Therefor, even though the artery was dug out of my heart muscle, it is impaired and I’m assuming this along with the other bridges I have add to the issues I have to this day. Thank you for your story though and I wish you all the best. I know this comment is late, please let me know how you are doing. I’d like to hear an update of any changes provided to you and your current health.

Just got diagnosed. Having all these symptoms, but doctor also denies that this is the problem.

I found a lot of P. Giordano. Which one is you? Can you put a link who found him please?

Exercise cause myocardial bridge.

Do heavy weight lifting cause myocardial bridge or it is a born disease?

Thank you so much for great video! I have had same symptoms for years and finally today I was diagnosed with myocardial bridge.

Hii....Paul Kindly share Facebook details with ur Facebook Dp I am unable to search you in Facebook

Thank you for this video as it explains a whole lot of what is going on with me!!! I grew up with in-explainable migraines, anxiety, short of breath just walking, etc.

Lui è mio fratello

I have a myocardial bridge too currently being treated at Stanford.
