I had 2 ohs 3 yrs ago, 5 wks apart. The first one they tried to repair the mitral valve and that lasted 3 wks, so 5wks to the date I was back in there getting a mechanical valve put in. All of this took place right after we had our 4th baby, she was 5 days old when I went into the hospital the first time. Everything has been going great, Coumadin for most part is fine but I am very active with 4 kids ages 12, 10, 7, & 3. Until the last 2 weeks I have been noticeing being short of breath when I am doing stuff or when I get stressed or upset with kids since there all home for summer break. I saw my cardiologist and she had me have a echo so now I am waiting for results. But I wanted to see if anyone else has went thru the same thing and maybe nothing is wrong and this could be just something that is normal. So if anyone has info about this pleas share and maybe it will help calm my nerves, because I do not want to go thru a 3rd ohs!!
