pretty much a non issue- I had bacterial endocarditis a few years ago, I am short of breath often but don’t know if that’s from the mvp
No, but it’s not that uncommon.
I do!
Heart murmur too.
If I get anxious or stressed or even scared my heart flips shit and breaks out with a weird arrhythmia. It hurts at the same level that a heart attack would according to the ER doctor one night.
Breathing can be really hard and I often have to stop whatever I’m doing and relax my body until I can breathe. That shortness of breath causes me to panic and sends my heart into a shitshow.
Eventually, I’ll have to have surgery to fix the valve, but it’s not bad enough yet. “It’s getting there.” was great to hear.
my ex had it. He would be extremely short of breath after strenuous activity, like moving me into this apartment up three flights of stairs… the last of which is extremely steep. Once in a blue moon it would happen randomly regardless of the level of activity.
My wife has it. She has to take antibiotics before she goes to the Dentist. So far, she hasn’t had any problems.
