I feel like I will never be back to my porcine valve level of exercise. After my mech valve was placed and I recovered I went back to exercise.
But my heart rate goes up so fast and I am not even close to the level of exercise I used to do with the porcine for 11 years. And I am on an ace inhib.
Also , the valve beats more irregularly at times,
much more than I ever noticed with the porcine.
Maybe cause it wasn't as noisy!
Does anyone else think that the mech valve is making a difference like this?
I am so ready to be "back to normal" but it isn't happening and I get to the point of tears sometimes when that darn valve is so noisy at night and I can't get it out of my mind! Ugh!
Sorry, I try to be so positive but lately I am feeling sorry for myself.
