Help Support Valve Replacement Forums:
Born with my valves reversed. 3 days old they opened me up to turn them the right way. At 8 years old my aortic valve was leaking so I had to get a mechanical valve. And just a month ago at 26 years old I rushed myself to the hospital because I couldn't breathe or walk, they automatically took me in and labeled me as heart failure. My heart was working so hard to pump blood in which my valve had gave out. I am now home 2 1/2 weeks after a tissue valve replacement.
