I was lucky enough to have someone recommend this site and what a relief!! I am a 34 yr old female. I was diagnosed with AI, MI and TI in June of 2000 and since have been having yearly echo's from the local fairly rural cadiologist, I was told that I will need a repacement (aortic valve) but they were just watching the progression of the damage (contradiction isnt it?). The thing I notice most is lethargy and exhaustion after even the littlest things, the cardiologists have been blowing this off. I have been told to go to a big city cardiologist but I am not looking forward to having my chest split open and afraid they will tell me they need practice....
I guess I am just here for support. I have read some of the stories and thank you for sharing them!!!!! I have to admit reading some of them made me weak...LOL I have been feeling some occasional chest ache more SOB than normal but keep saying to myself that cardiologist blew it off and so shouild I and quit worrying. I am on no meds and do what I want to do (activity) and just stop when I get too SOB or tired.
So far this is better than getting my chest split and all that good stuff...LOL
Thanks for reading!!
