Hi, My name is Barbara. I will be 79 tomorrow and I have had heart palpitations, which are under control. My husband Adrian is 95, has had a valve replacement, and has a fib. He has no pain or discomfort, but "I can't run down the street like I used to."
It's nice to know there are other people out there with experience with our health issues.

@babs2519 Hello Barbara:

I see this is just your second post on Connect. Welcome! I so appreciate your post - you and your husband have a delightful sense of humor. When you said, "It's nice to know there are other people out there with experience with our health issues," you stated one of the most important purposes of Connect. As we all share our experiences, we learn from each other and don't feel so all alone in our situation.

I am Teresa, a volunteer mentor on Connect. I too have some heart problems, including aortic insufficiency, LBBB, diastolic dysfunction and some rapid heart beats that come and go.

If you care to share, when was your husband's valve replacement? Has he done well since that procedure?

I look forward to hearing more from you in the future.

Teresa
