Hi All this is my first time posting a new thread. I had my mitral valver repaired using robotic surgery 14 weeks ago. I have got back to running which I did a lot of prior to surgery but have found that after about 20 min I tend to get a weird feeling i my chest, not pain but a sort of tightening. I am thinking it is anxiety related to me stressing that I will never be as fit as I was or that something could happen on the run. I had my 3 month post-op stress echo and the cardilogist said my results were outstanding. Does it take time for the heart to regain fitness? . My other theory is that the feeling in my chest is just out of shape and injured chest muscles playing up. I have had so many weird physical symptoms since surgery. Anybody with similiar stories I would appreciate you input.
