I Am Still Having Symptoms Even After Having Aortic Valve Replacement.
Along with aortic valve stenosis, I had "episodes" of exertion, then gasping for breath, feeling as if I was dying, feeling of suffocation, feeling of passing out, and grabbing hold of something before I fell. These episodes lasted just seconds. Once I caught my breath, I felt back to normal. Despite having had an aortic valve replacement (TAVR) in September 2023, I am still experiencing these episodes. Does anyone else have these symptoms? What has your cardiologist done to help you?
I'm sorry to hear that you're still experiencing symptoms. It's important to discuss this with your cardiologist. Post-surgery, some complications can occur, such as:
- Blood clots
- Blood loss
- Infection
- Breathing problems
- Reactions to medication
- Kidney failure
- Heart attack or stroke during the surgery
