About Me (In My Own Words)
I am 32 years old. A year ago I started having symptoms. My doctor was kind of confused, and started me on different meds. Things calmed down for a bit. But it kept getting worse. Eventually I was at the point where I couldn’t breath because I was retaining so much fluid. I was sent about a months ago to a cardiologist after some test they realized that I had mitral stenosis which they thought was a congenital situation for me. I went to another doctor and he actually said that at some point in my life I had rheumatic fever. I was diagnosed about 3 weeks ago and will have my surgery in about a month.
