Hi hope you’re all well. Could I ask a question to the group please. I had aortic valve replacement with a mechanical On x valve last September. Lately I’ve been getting these strong sharp beats of my heart, which I can feeling going up to my neck and into my temple and also down to the end of my legs. I can feel strong, sharp pulses if that makes sense. It feels like a lot of pressure in these areas particularly my temple. I only take warfarin, my range is 1.5 to 2.
Is this something that others experience or should I mention this to the cardiologist. I’ll be seeing him likely in the next few months anyway so I could hold off until then perhaps. Thank you.

Susan Lynn Stephen - It never hurts to mention anything you're experiencing to your cardiologist. Most likely, it's nothing to be concerned about, but you won't know that for certain until you ask. Wishing you well!
