I'm new to this board, so hi y'all. I had mitral valve replacement surgery on 7/30/07. I received a bovine valve. I got better for a while and then hit a plateau. I should also mention that in the last year, I met the man of my dreams (who stuck by me through the surgery and post-op even though we had only been seeing each other a few weeks), got engaged, moved out of state, and changed careers so stress is a factor. We're getting married 5/24/08. Still having shortness of breath, chest pain, and fatigue. I'm scared that this is as good as my recovery will get. I don't want to feel this way with my new husband, in a new career, and in a new city. I'm going to a new cardiologist Thursday. Hoping for more info and better medication/treatment.
Does anyone else take digitek/digoxin that has been recalled by the FDA? Scary I take that, Sotalol, and an aspirin everyday. I've been wondering if the medications I take are typical or even the right ones!! I've been doing some research in hopes of being better informed before I see my new doctor.
Thanks for listening! I would really love to hear from you.
