At the age of 9 diagnosed with rheumatic heart disease. Was admitted into children hospital for about a year. Started with strep throat. After all of my dr. Appointments and there was many my heart valve that was my mytrol valve was replaced with a at. Jude valve on 5/13/2013Now I am in affib as I go back into hospital. At the age of 54. I been on a number of medicines. Soratol and in hospital again 5 days and the medication didn't work I had heart failure in a restarunt and passed out had to call 911 and was admitted again to be given a series of new medicines. The final med. is called ameroderone the upside is it's somewhat slows my heart down and the downside is it causes scar tissue on your kidneys and liver thyroid glands. Going in hosp. For another round of cardioversion. So I ask you how many more rounds can my heart take with all the ups and downs?
