Hello @raweber, and welcome to Connect,

My search for myocardial bridging brought up this past discussion, https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/unknown-undiagnosed-medical-condition/ in which @melissacrn wrote about her brother in law. I sincerely hope she will return to join us here.

@raweber, may I ask if you would share a bit more? Have you been diagnosed with myocardial bridging? What are the symptoms associated within condition?

I was diagnosed with MB in 2016. I have been thru lots of tests that turned out normal except for an abnormal Echo. I am on fuorosimide ant metropolol meds. I have terrible shortness of breath especially when I lay on my right side at night. My cardiologist is not real concerned. They found it on a catherization. Will this SOB ever go away?

There is an excellent Facebook Group to join for this condition called Myocardial Bridge Support Group. It is excellent and has videos and true stories of people with this condition. The fact that many cardiologist think of it as a Benign Condition (as they are taught in med school) I find somewhat outdated thinking and how can it be benign if people are walking around with SOB and chest and neck pains enough to keep them up at night? FB group is excellent.
