MECHNICAL HEART VALVES

I had open heart surgery and received 2 mechanical heart valves. Now a few years later I have the symptoms as before. I'm wondering if another valve has gone bad

  1. Thank you for asking this question. The only way to be fully sure is to tell your cardiologist so they can do the tests necessary. I am linking some articles that I think may be helpful to you at the end of this comment. I wish you all the best. -Olivia https://heart-failure.net/valve-replacement https://heart-failure.net/surgery
