I have a leaking mitral valve. It started years ago. Then about 10 years ago it got really bad and I had open heart surgery. Dr thought he could repair it but it was so bad, he replaced it. I and Miss Piggy (so named by a grandchild). Miss Piggy is leaking and her friend, the tricuspid valve, are leaking. Not quite enough for surgery. And hopefully they never will!

I had a quadruple bypass (cabg) in 2023.i am now diagnosed with CAD.There has not been any mention of post care except exercise and call if I have symptoms. THE PROBLEM is I didn't have ANY symptoms before...I had to beg a cardiologist for further testing .They finally diagnosed blockage after 6 months of tests.More care of womens symptoms should be resolved.
