I had a mechanical valve put in and it can be pretty loud at times, I am trying to get use to the noise. Also, is it normal to feel your heart beats so loud and close to your throat after open heart surgery. I also have a hard time with my back muscles, I have hard time elevating my hands. Is this normal? I started cardiac rehab about 3 weeks ago but I feel I am not getting the attention my case needs, I have been doing the same speed and time for the last 3 weeks on treadmill and bike. Any suggestions
I do recall very pronounce heartbeats especially with activity. My heartrate also increased often into the 120's. It bothered ma a lot so I understand how you feel. My Cardiologist put me on Metoprolol which slowed it and decreased the intensity which was much better for me.
Have you told your Cardiologist about these issues and how they make you feel? He or she may have be able to help. I also got some very good suggestions for things concerning me from the Rehab team. I had to wait 6 mos due to a complication. I hope you get some answers and help so you can feel better soon.
