Help Support Valve Replacement Forums:
Last checkup: Valve was fine, but pressures in heart are high. EKG showed some abnormalities so follow up MRI and stress test are planned in the coming weeks.
Regarding pregnancy, I was told that my heart pumps blood out to my body fine, but my heart is stiff so it has difficulty refilling properly which could cause me to develop heart failure in addition to the thromboembolic risks associated with pregnancy.
I love to make towel cakes! They make great gifts and are a great stress reliever!
