All of which has **** all to do with a leaking valve. It needs to be
replaced. It sure as hell was not caused by a bad diet. Or lack of
exercise. Actually, it seems to be a birth defect. Bad luck they call
it. Luckily for you this USENET where jumping to conclusions is not
often fatal.

As if you, in your weakened state, can back up your threats.

Birth defect my aching ass. If you've had it since birth and haven't had
it fixed then you sure aren't taking care of yourself which is exactly
my point.

Here's some information you might be interested in:

There are a number of possible causes of heart valve disease. These
include:
1) rheumatic fever during childhood - this disease is no longer
common in the UK but still affects people in developing countries
2) a "congenital deformity" which means that you were born with an
abnormal valve
3) coronary artery disease - when a blockage occurs in the arteries
that supply blood to your heart it can damage the valve
4) a disease called cardiomyopathy - when the heart muscle becomes
thickened or dilated it can obstruct blood flow age - as you get older,
the valves become less flexible, stretched or torn

I bet you're fat, don't exercise, have high cholesterol and probably
smoke - all the common traits of men today. Your coronary arteries are
undoubtedly restricted or blocked by cholesterol which is the direct
result of improper diet or failure to medicate if your body produces too
much cholesterol in spite of a proper diet.

What's your height and weight?
