[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had the same thing happen, but at about 12 years old. You posted a different thread about this recently, yes? As I said then, my valve has been replaced twice (in my 40s now), and I have a totally normal life, other than yearly cardiac checkups. Most people who develop this, even young, have very few problems. If it is weighing this much on your mind -- and I say this gently -- you should sit down with your cardiologist and discuss prognosis, and maybe consider therapy. It is never completely going to go away, and there is absolutely no reason it should dominate your life. Heart stuff is hard, though. Believe, me, I get it. [/quote] Can you play sports with your new valve? How about child birth? [/quote]
