Hi there, I am 18 weeks post op septal myectomy and aortic valve replacement. I turned the corner at about 14 weeks. I am still in rehab but still have an arrhythmia which is being evaluated

@jsl4801 I am 9 weeks tomorrow, and am starting to have more PVCs, which I have always had but they are worse now, They did change my BP med to metoprolol in hosital after surgery, and think I might need a higher dose. But I am going to research a lot due to what I hear about side effects of that particular drug

@jsl4801 I developed arrhythmia about 3 weeks after my septal myectomy. Dizziness and giddiness when moving around, never when sitting or laying. Syncope, wore Holter for a month, pressed a button each time felt dizzy, another Syncope, report from Holter showed arrhythmia. I was given Buddy, my ICD. Your situation is unique to you, but my story may be useful. Our lucky hearts underwent quite a bit of trauma.
