In March 2026 my primary doctor heard a murmur. I never had a murmur before. Didn’t rush to see a cardiologist. Went to a cardiologist had an echo cardiogram and a TEE. In a few days, it was determined that I have Mitral Valve Regurgitation.
I have not been winded but felt some chest pressure at night. Surgery scheduled for July 26. I am hoping to get recovery ideas here since I want to get back to do all the things I want to do.
