Leaking Heart Valves

Help,

I had an initial Class 1 in December where the ECG picked up an indication for left ventricular hypertrophy. I've just had an echocardiogram completed with an approved cardiologist and they have detected a leaking tricuspid valve.

None of this sounds good, the chap is sending the full report to me as well with a recommendation I see my GP.

I'm assuming a Class 1 is going to be a non-starter, but does this mean they will withdraw my Class 2?

Does anyone have any idea if this problem can be fixed to get a Class 1?

Many thanks for you help guys
