About Me (In My Own Words)
My name is Terri and I am 44 years old. I've had a heart murmur since birth without any issues growing up. Got married late in life at 41 and had my first baby at 42 with out any issues. Got pregnant with my second baby at 43 and was diagnosed at 5 weeks pregnant with Afib and mitral regurgitation. I was put on Lovenox and Digoxin and continued fine with the pregnancy. Had a amino done at 17.5 weeks and lost the baby a week later. A week after I went to my cardiologist who performed a Tee test and a Catherization. I was told the valve would need to be replaced. The next week I met with a surgeon at Emory who wanted to schedule the surgery right away but my husband was out of the country and I need to wait. In the mean time I called St Joesph's to see if I'm a candidate for Robotic Surgery. With having a child close to 2 years old seems more ideal for me. The doctor has been out of town and I couldn't get a appointment until Tuesday March 16Th. I've don't have the symptoms they same I should have? So I'm hoping the Robotic surgery will be the answer.
