Hello! My mom had triple bypass and mitral valve replacement in April. She has had shortness of breath since then-got worse when dr put her on ACE inhibitor. Cardio ran tests-chemical stress test, echocardiogram, finally did cath this past Wed. Turns out the surgeon who did her bypass twisted one of the bypasses and very little blood flow was going through the artery. The cardio ballooned it today-mom said it was instant relief. I am thankful she is okay but frustrated too because my mom (64) has been through so very much medically her whole life. But hey-the valve is working great! I could go on and on-I so appreciate this board and thanks for letting me vent-Debbie
