About Me

I have had moderate mitral valve regurgitation for a long time and bouts with Afib. Received pacemaker in 2020. Recently was told that regurgitation had progressed to severe. Going through testing and meeting with surgeon on July 20. Experiencing a lot of tiredness and shortness of breath. Not comfortable.
