This is my first time to this forum. The info is very good, but I have some questions.
I've been experiencing rapid heartbeat, fatigue, light-headedness and resulting headaches. Just learned I have mitral leakage. I'm assuming it's mild because surgery wasn't mentioned. I was taking 3 gr Thyroid at the time so my cardiologist cut that in half to see if it would help. I thought it did at first, but now am experiencing all those same symptoms and in general feel really bad most of the time.
I don't know whether to contact my cardiologist again or not. I've been under a lot of stress recently with my husband having two surgeries 6 weeks apart and the doctors and hospital being a 3 hr drive away. There have been a lot of trips and of course, the surgeries and recuperations put a strain on the well too.
Sorry for the long post. I just want to know if it's normal for me to feel this way.
Thanks!
