I took the prescription weight loss drug called Redux.

I've had an echocardiogram, and am waiting for the results. If I have a malfunction in one of my heart valves will this prevent me from having the surgery? I've been told that most malfunctions are mild and do not effect a person's quality of life. However, I've heard of people who took Phen-Phen or Redux having to have an echocardiogram as part of their pre-testing.
