About Me

Hello, I am Andy. I had my mitral and tricuspid valve repair in May. After 4 months, I had my echo. There is still trace to trivial regurgitation. I never had BP issues , hypertension or heart rate issues prior to surgery. But over the last 4 months after surgery, I have developed high diastolic pressure and heart rate of over 100 beats/minute. Taking meds, but there is lots of fluctuations. Are these symptoms being experienced by anyone else out there who underwent surgery?
