There are a couple of weird things I've noticed after having aortic valve replacement. The first was actually being able to hear the mechanical valve clicking, which I expected, but still weird.
Another is my heart rate is at least 10 beats faster than before surgery. Maybe that's the beta-blockers...........
Also, when I take a deep breath it feels like my heart beats harder, or is more noticeable during the deep breath. When I exhale, it seems normal again.
