Hello All. I have a lot of questions regarding post valve replacement. I was born with congenital aortic stenosis. My first open heart was at age 15. In 11 of 2003, I had my second open heart and valve replaced with a mechanical St. Jude. Since then, I have had a lot of memory loss, panic/anxiety attacks, depression, insomnia, headaches, and vision disturbances(blurs). Has any one else experienced these things? My doctors look at me as if I'm delusional. These symptoms have affected my lifestyle; My marriage, parenting skills and I miss a lot of work because of insomnia and panic attacks. I haven't looked into social security diasibility (is this even an option at my young age of 38). Anyone with advice or even similar experience please lets talk. I feel alone and don't think others understand.
