Hi hope you’re all well. Could I ask a question to the group please. I had aortic valve replacement with a mechanical On x valve last September. Lately I’ve been getting these strong sharp beats of my heart, which I can feeling going up to my neck and into my temple and also down to the end of my legs. I can feel strong, sharp pulses if that makes sense. It feels like a lot of pressure in these areas particularly my temple. I only take warfarin, my range is 1.5 to 2. Is this something that others experience or should I mention this to the cardiologist. I’ll be seeing him likely in the next few months anyway so I could hold off until then perhaps. Thank you.
