About Me

I was diagnosed with Mitral Valve Prolapse in 1993. Developed Atrial Fibrillation in 2016. In 2023 I had an Ablation for my Afib. In 2024 my Mitral Valve had moderate leakage and in 2/2025 it slipped into moderate to severe. I did have symptoms in the last 6-7 months with shortness of breath and fatigue. I have always been very active with racquetball, weights, aerobic exercise, dance. I'm staying active just not like before. I'm scheduled for robotic mitral valve repair. I know I'll feel so much better once I get this done! 🙏🏼♥️
