Has anyone been treated for Myocardial Bridging at Mayo?

I was just diagnosed with MB and my primary doctor and Cardiologist don't seem very concerned about my condition even though I have chronic chest pain and blood pressure issues. How do I go about contacting Mayo Clinic for scheduling an appointment?

Hello @boniface48,

Welcome to Connect. If you’d like to make an appointment at Mayo Clinic, please call one of our appointment offices – you can also request an appointment online – and representatives will ask a few questions to help direct you to the best specialist.
The contact information for all 3 Mayo Clinic locations (Minnesota, Arizona, Florida) can be found here: http://mayocl.in/1mtmR63

While I’m confident that @raweber @kylewatson will return to share their insights, I’d also like to like to introduce you to @ch665296f who has written about this condition.

Myocardial bridging is a congenital anomaly which has long been considered benign. Here are two recent articles which evaluate the cardiovascular consequences of myocardial bridging:
– https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-017-13958-0
– https://www.ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/CIRCINTERVENTIONS.117.006247

@boniface48, I’m so glad to hear that you are seeking a second opinion at Mayo Clinic – one of the many valuable things I’ve learned the Connect community is that you should never give up until you find the right person who can help you in the best possible way.
May I ask if your doctors have offered any suggestions for managing your symptoms?
