My Heart

I had shortness of breath for a week, so I went to the doctor and he put me on antibiotics. There was no improvement after taking the antibiotics for a week, so he prescribed them for another week. When I went back to the doctor, I still had shortness of breath, so he put me on another antibiotic for another week. I was still having a hard time breathing, so I went to ER and ended up having two valves replaced.
